Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.0) Installed from: Fedora RPMs Compiler: gcc (GCC) 4.0.2 20051125 (Red Hat 4.0.2-8) OS: Linux The "Add to custom colors"-button has no effect in the standard KDE color selection widget. I doesn't seem to work at all. There are no colors in the custom color palette. Tested with the following apps: kdesktop kolourpaint knotes I am assuming it applies to all applications that use this widget.
I noticed the same problem with KColorChooser with KDE 3.5.0, SUSE 9.3. There is an extra blank entry at the bottom of the color palette drop-down list box, and the Add to Custom Colors button switches to this empty palette and does nothing. Same thing in all the other programs I tried with this color selection dialog. I went back to KDE 3.4.3 to get rid of the problem.
I confirm this bug with KDE 3.5.0, SuSE 10.0. I dug a little and what I found is that --apparently-- to reduce the number of recent colors removes --temporarely-- the empty color list. Check your ~/.kde/share/config/colors/Recent_Colors I had over 600 recent colors which I reduced to less than 128. (Some of these recent colors wasn't that recent IMHO.) But this doesn't solve the problem. The empty list re-appears when I click on "Add to custom colors" and nothing else happens. I tried to reduce the number of custom colors --although there was less than 100 of them-- but it makes no difference. Even erasing the custom colors file doesn't help; it won't be re-created.

Still doesn't work in KDE 3.5.1.
I fixed it some time ago in KDE 3.5 branch
