For information (and haven't checked if it has been said already), there is a second font color button that behaves more clearly, see here : http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=50200
Ok, that explains it all. Thank you! I hope it helps the OP as well. Hagar

The reason why it didn't make sense to me was that I think it should work just like the other formatting buttons, such as Fat, Italic, Underline. Maybe the "other button", discussed above, works that way, I didn't try it yet. I can't see a reason for it to not work both ways. Just like you can see on the Fat button if text you are going to enter will be fat or not, it would be intuitive if the colour of the character colour button is the colour that text is going to have.
