Hello, Thanks for the suggestion. But I don't see how we can have both 2) and 3). 3) is exactly the reason for the current behavior: like all other toolbar buttons, the button reflects the current state of the selection (or the character near the cursor). Wouldn't it be strange that clicking on a button showing a red color (because the current text is red) would apply a green color? Some might find it strange that there's no way to see what the button is going to do (OTOH the user remembers which color he applied last, so this isn't a bad idea...). Opinions? 2) and 3) are the standard behavior in other word processors. This also applies to the line and fill button. CVS commit by langkamp: Changed color button behavior. The button now remembers the color and applies it on click.

V.1.4.1. My suggestion. 1) arrow-down -- bring shortened colors dialog on-fly, works this way now 2) single-click on the main part (left one) -- apply last selected color (doesn't work this way -- opens full color dialog) 3) double click on main part -- bring full color dialog |
