Hi there,

entering a color in the new color, with its hex code, has a rather
strange result. Try

- menu "Tools" -"Options..."
- on the "Options" dialog, select the on the tree "OpenOffice.org"
   - "Colors"
- select a color and press the "Edit..." button (side comment: the color
   picker should be available from the floating window that opens from
   the toolbar!)
- enter some color in the "Hex #" edit field, for example AA

If I enter AA, I would expect it to be #0000AA, that is, zeros added at
the left.

AA -> 0000AA -> RBG 0,0,170

but the color picker shows RGB 170,170,170

Enter only A

A -> 00000A -> RGB 0,0,10

but the color picker shows RGB 160,160,160

Enter ABC

ABC -> 000ABC -> RGB o,10,188

the color picker shows 171,171,171

Which should be the expected behaviour?

That part of the dialog is broken. Even if you enter a 6 digit value, you do not get that color.

I expect, that if you enter a value, which would be valid in "three digit hex" or in "six digit hex" syntax [http://www.w3.org/TR/SVGColor12/], then this color is set. Non valid entries should be indicated in the appearance of the field.

But I'm not sure, whether this field is intended to be an input field. It might be, that only viewing the actual hex values was intended. The old dialog, has no such field.

Kind regards
Regina
