            Bug ID: 151902
           Summary: Improve document theme color edit UI
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

See bug 151900 for context, that bug has to be solved first.

Once that's done, the UI should be improved (the Theme tab page):

Looking at the competition (PowerPoint), what they have is you go to slide
master view, and then the Slide Master tab on the ribbon has a colors dropdown.
Each item in that dropdown provides a set of colors. Only an additional button
below the dropdown opens an inner dialog to edit individual colors.

The idea (from Heiko, but I agree) is that most users don't want to specify
individual colors, rather they just want to pick one set of colors from a list.

The above referred bugreport has additional columns with RGB values, those
should be used for the implementation.

The task is to add such a theme color dropdown to the Theme tab page, and move
most of the widgets of the original tab page into an inner dialog, available
from a new button below the dropdown. (Or something equivalent, Heiko may have
better ideas for the exact layout.)

As a follow-up, this may obsolete palettes of colors (which are just RGB values
without names), but good to work incrementally.
