You are right in that older documents will now have a light color where
they had a dark color before. But now not only 8 but all 16 basic html
colors will be supported, so the user can change the color name to
teal if he really wants the dark color. However older OpenOffice

If the solution were obvious, I would not have brought it to the list.


Thanks for the very detailed explanation. This is surely material for 
the next Release Notes. I didn't have time to follow this when you were 
working on it, so please forgive me if I missed some details.


So (limiting this to Math for the moment) we will get 16 color choices 
instead of 8, but some colors in older documents will now be rendered 
differently due to the fact that we were writing colors in the file by 
name, but we weren't respecting the name attributions in MathML (so we 
used to write red for denoting a color that MathML did not call red).


I agree with your proposals on how to handle the broken color mapping.

Is it feasible to switch to writing the RGB values to the file instead 
of color names? Would this ensure less equivocal compatibility with the 
standards and other suites? Would colors written this way be properly 
remapped to their names when reopening the file? If I read correctly, 
you said that this is what Calc does, and it looks much less error-prone.

yes

, but some colors in older documents will now be rendered

differently due to the fact that we were writing colors in the file by
name, but we weren't respecting the name attributions in MathML (so we
used to write red for denoting a color that MathML did not call red).


ODF specification simple says The math:math element serves as a 
container for content defined by the MathML 2.0 standard. To keep the 
old StarMath syntax the annotation element of MathML is used. So when 
saving a formula OpenOffice writes MathML code, which is needed for ODF 
and in addition it writes an annotation element to preserve its own 
StarMath code. When reading a file and such annotation element exists, 
then it is used and MathML is ignored. When such annotation element 
does not exist, then the MathML code is used.


OpenOffice has written red to StarMath code in the annotation 
element and #ff to the MathML part. That is the correct mapping. But 
in rendering, OpenOffice has not shown the color #ff but the color 
#80.




I agree with your proposals on how to handle the broken color mapping.

Is it feasible to switch to writing the RGB values to the file instead
of color names?


I have looked at it, for to be able to use the #rgb and #rrggbb 
notations, which are allowed in MathML. My idea was to allow such 
notations in StarMath too. But that is a larger task and has a lot of 
problems. For example the current implementation of the StarMath parser 
handles all content as tokens, but does not keep the context of the 
tokens. So the hash # is turned to a token TPOUND. And for #00ff00 the 
next token would be TNUMBER, but for #ff the next token would be 
TIDENT (=identifier). As # is used as delimiter in matrix and stack, the 
context is needed to handle # different, when it follows a color command.


In the import filter for MathML it is no problem. There the token for 
color has the complete value #00ff00 (for example) as token value and it 
would be possible to write the correct color value into the node of the 
model.


 Would this ensure less equivocal compatibility with the

standards and other suites?


Writing #rrggbb values in StarMath would make it unambiguous.

I hesitate to start in that direction. It needs an own discussion (new 
thread) about the future of StarMath. Perhaps we should go in the same 
direction as with the old binary formats and drop it totally. MathML is 
much richer than the existing StarMath language. To be able to really 
use MathML 2.0, the StarMath language would have to be extended and who 
will do that? I have not even found a specification of the language.


 Would colors written this way be properly

remapped to their names when reopening the file?


The mapping is already done in case the annotation is missing, the value 
#ff is mapped to StarMath red, but red has been rendered as #80.


 If I read correctly,

The color names do not exist in ODF file format, but file format uses 
#rrggbb values directly. So there is no problem with definitions made in 
Format  Cell  Numbers.


The problem in Calc is, that it is possible to use a format code as 
string in the function TEXT and so the color names can be used indirectly.


From some strange code, which translates between German and English 
color names, I guess that color names were perhaps used in StarOffice 
binary formats.

Yes, #rrggbb notation would result in ? too. The StarMath parser in 
older versions is not able to parse #rrggbb notation in StarMath code.

   It seems using #RGB codings is the reliable way to interchange
   since it does not depend on discrepancies in the names given to the

   It strikes me that the way to deal with the red disparity is to
   have #80 written in the MathML where Starmath red is intend
   and to not include the StarMath code.

   On re-imput to OpenOffice, or to the StarMath, the name can then be
   properly re-derived from the #RGB.  So StarMath red is not broken,
   interop with the correct color happens.  Except for the problem below.

  Would colors written this way be properly
 remapped to their names when reopening the file?

The mapping is already done in case the annotation is missing, the value 
#ff is mapped to StarMath red, but red has been rendered as #80.

orcnote
   This mapping #ff to StarMath red is definitely a bug.  Does 
   StarMath have no color-name equivalent for #ff?  Does it have
   similar problems for the other primaries, #00ff00 and #ff?

   If the problem is that StarMath has limited color choices, there is
   a significant problem having that interfere with interop of
   ODF documents having MathML.

Not the #rrggbb values are written to MathML but the color names. But 
those color names have a specified meaning in MathML. OpenOffice uses 
for StarMath - MathML

white - white
black - black
yellow - yellow
green - green
red - red [different rendering in OpenOffice and MathML]
blue - blue [different rendering in OpenOffice and MathML]
cyan - aqua [different rendering in OpenOffice and MathML]
magenta - fuchsia [different rendering in OpenOffice and MathML]



The mapping is already done in case the annotation is missing, the value
#ff is mapped to StarMath red, but red has been rendered as
#80.


Wrong :( #rrggbb values are not imported but only the color names, using 
mapping above. Only Calc uses #rrggbb values.

I could only find two examples under TEXT function.  I tried some

A reference to a cell is possible.

Oh, I read the ODF 1.2 Part 2 6.20.23 incorrectly.  So it is Format
 Code and it is any expression that produces a text value.  So yes,
 References are possible.

 OK, then rewriting between the user and the document format is not
 useful, since these can be from the values in other cells.  So that
 also means any international variations have to all be accepted by
 an OpenFormula consumer with the same implementation-defined
 FormatCode cases.

 and some cooperation would be valuable in this context.
 /orcnote

That might be better discussed in the ODF TC. Perhaps the OASIS Wiki 
would be a good place to collect such information - with the constantly 
recurring question, who will do it?

orcnote
Only Members of the ODF TC can create content on the OASIS Wiki for

 They are readable in public, but not writable by anyone but the TC.

For module Math it is too late to make it an easy fix, because the fix 
is finished, beside the question, what color to use. When I started I 
had no idea how easy or hard it would be.


For Calc I have looked around, but could not find the place yet. So if 
someone can provide a pointer, then it might work. But I'm not sure 
because localization is involved.


Back to the question, which color to use:
Foreign (not OpenOffice or LibreOffice) .odf documents will use the 
html-color-names and those names are standardized. So for that names I 
think, there is no choice, we have to render them as they are defined in 
the standard. Do you agree?


So the color name red will be #ff in Math as it is already in 
Calc, and the color name blue will be #ff in Math as it is already 
in Calc. That gives a more consistent use and solves issue i118191. But 
old documents will be rendered different.


The color name green in Math has the same rendering as green in html, so 
that can stay. For Calc it can be solved, when the color name lime is 
allowed too and mapped to the light green and green to the dark green. 
Color names are not stored in the Calc files and therefore old documents 
are not affected.


The question is, what to do with names cyan and magenta? These names 
do not belong to the standard. So we can decide, which color OpenOffice 
renders and which color it writes to the file. If Math will use them the 
same way as Calc, then cyan has to be rendered same as aqua and 
magenta same as fuchsia. OpenOffice writes currently aqua and 
fuchsia to the MathML part of the file already. That would make the 
names consistent between Math and Calc and between rendering via 
StarMath and rendering via pure MathML. But old documents would be 
rendered different. Shall I change the rendering of cyan and magenta 
to the light colors too?

   I've lost track, here, of what is recorded in the ODF file as a color
   choice (in MathML and in other places where there are color choices)
   and what is presented to the user as the name for the color (also on
   any drop-down from a sample of the color in a color-picker).

   Another place to figure out what is going on is the colors that were
   implemented beyond the 16 standard RGB names in HTML/XHTML. In that
   case, cyan is the same as cyan1 (and aqua) and magenta is the same as 
   fuschia - that is, they are the brightest forms of the
   colors.  Another way of looking at it: cyan/aqua is the complement of 
   red, magenta/fuschia is the complement of green.

 Hi all,

 I'm going to work on https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=118191.

 ODF1.2 uses MathML and that allows font colors to be defined by
 html-color-names. The corresponding rgb-values are defined in HTML.

 The problems are:

 Math writes its red as red in mml and renders it as rgb 80 00 00. But
 red in HTML is defined as FF 00 00. The dark variant is named maroon.

 Math writes its blue as blue in mml and renders it as rgb 00 00 80.
 But blue in HTML is defined as rgb 00 00 FF. The dark variant is named
 navy.

 Math writes its cyan as aqua in mml and renders it as rgb 00 80 80.
 But aqua in HTML is defined as rgb 00 FF FF. The dark variant is named
 teal. A color name cyan does not exist as html-color-name.

 Math writes its magenta as fuchsia in mml and renders it as rbg 80 00
 80. But fuchsia in HTML is defined as rgb FF 00 FF. The dark variant is
 named purple. A color name magenta does not exist as html-color-name.

 So in each case the rendering is different from the value in the file. If
 you get a foreign document or a pur MathML formula for import, which have
 no annotation containing the Starmath expression, then it is rendered
 wrongly.

 I see two options in general
 (a) change rendering to the rgb-values of the html-color-names contained
 in the file.
 (b) change file export to write html-color-names which meet the rendering.

 In addition, as more colors in Math is a very old wish, I want to add the
 missing html-color-name colors in this fix, so that it is possible to use
 16 colors instead of only 8 colors now. That would not solve
 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=5156 totally but would
 help. For #rgb and ##rrggbb colors I would have to learn more about the
 code to solve it.

 Suggestions, ideas, concerns?

 Kind regards
 Regina


Hi Regina --

I saw that you had already made some changes yesterday  re i118191

 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=118191

I have not investigated color renderings in AOO at all in terms of values,
but my first thought is we should be consistent across modules on how this
is done. RGB vs HTML?
