Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: EDITING: Use a sensible color picker for drawings
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.3.2 release
Component: Drawing
Product: LibreOffice

screenshots showing the currently available color pickers in LibreOffice
Why does the LibreOffice Draw (and also drawing tools in Write, Impress etc.)
not use Writer's text color/highlight/paragraph background colour selector?
(see attachment)
To name a few disadvantages of Draw's colour picker:
1. Colour names take up space. The names themselves are not useful for drawing
-- the colours themselves are important.
2. The colours are laid out sequentially. I am limited to 20, maybe 30 colours
per screen in the drop-down selection. This makes it very difficult to know
what colours are available in the current palette, and to compare colours.
LibreOffice Draw should use the same colour picker as in Write.
In my opinion the drop-down-and-scroll colour picker is a horrible idea and
should be eradicated from the entire code base.
