"the 7 chr with # included ought to be handled."


Actually the more I think about this, aside from the current problem of the
final digit being truncated, that input field for the color should not only
allow the preceding pound/hash symbol, it should add it if not included in the
input. The stored string value should retain the "#" and display it in the
input field, so it is included if copied for use elsewhere. That string
variable wouldn't preclude the existing use of the numerical variable already
being used to store the color value. The reason for requiring the # is that web
development, e.g. CSS, already requires colors to be prefaced with the
pound/hash/# symbol which is a very common use case for a word processor and
defacto or ersatz (depending upon your perspective) HTML editor like
LibreOffice Writer.  Copying and pasting colors back and forth between
LibreOffice Writer and Firefox or other web browser or development tool would
be seamless with the # prepended to the color value.
