Re: [libreoffice-design] Color picker
- Mail original - De: Andrew Pullins android2...@gmail.com Hello, So I just read all of the IRC chat log. I do not see the problem with having a Document Colors section in addition to Custom Colors. I'm also convinced it would be a nice feature to have, but the drawback would be increasing complexity of the interface and complexity of implementation (I said performance on IRC which is only part of the problem). I think we all agree that we need a solution to re-use a color that is used in the document and that is not present in the palette. IMHO, in most cases, the user wants to re-use a color of an element of the document that he actually sees. I the mockup I suggested, you have to select the element, click other, add this color to your palette, and then apply it. It's sub-optimal, but it's rather easy to implement and it's already a significant improvement over the current situation. Adding an eye dropper, as suggested, would probably be a good idea, but it can be implemented later. I'm really convinced that we should have a realistic approach so that we can have quickly in the code changes that make a bit difference.

Hi Christoph, all, sorry for not being there at all when I said I could be... I was occupied with other stuff, and then seemingly didn't really get the GMT bit (else I would have risked at least with half an eye).

Hello Christoph and all, Sorry for not being able to make the chat.

Mirek, Depends.

Re: [libreoffice-design] Color picker
Hello I'm also convinced it would be a nice feature to have, but the drawback would be increasing complexity of the interface and complexity of implementation (I said performance on IRC which is only part of the problem). how complex is having both my custom colors and the colors used in the document. besides the way I see it, the document colors would only appear when there is different colors then black #FF. so only the people who change the colors to something would even see this part of the color picker. and those who do have multiple colors may appreciated not having to recreate that exact blue they need. I think we all agree that we need a solution to re-use a color that is used in the document and that is not present in the palette. why not? where else would it go, where else would you expect it to be. I would only expect such a feature to be in the color picker. IMHO, in most cases, the user wants to re-use a color of an element of the document that he actually sees. I the mockup I suggested, you have to select the element, click other, add this color to your palette, and then apply it. so under your mockup/idea, you think that the user should select some text that is company blue, then go to the color picker more colors add to custom colors then go to where ever else they want to use that blue and then select it and then change its color to the blue in their custom colors... that is way to complicated for any user to have to go though to reuse the same color, even if they only have to do it once. secondly what if you give me a doc to work on, I do not want to have all of your colors saved in my custom colors. It's sub-optimal, but it's rather easy to implement and it's already a significant improvement over the current situation. anything is better then our current color picker, expectantly seance you have to predefined them in the programs options menu. I'm really convinced that we should have a realistic approach so that we can have quickly in the code changes that make a bit difference. I have no idea what you mean by this.
