Re: [libreoffice-users] meager color options

I sent Jonathon a off list email containing attachments of HTML files
for the PDF page of the color names.

Also, since he listed the names of issues commonly called "color
blindness", I had a PDF print out of the "standard" colors and their
versions for those color issues.  It was a PDF printout of a web site,
and included the page link.

I do not have Oxygen Office, so I do not know what their palette
was/is.  I do not think I will try to install it either.  YET, it seems
to me that the text indicates that Oxygen Office has a much larger
palette of colors.

What is interesting is the fact that the the color "editor" shows the
colors in RGB decimal and the standard.soc has the colors listed in RGB
Hexadecimal.  Since most color charts I have seen uses Hex, why does LO
use decimal and then converts it to Hex for the color palettes?

Crayola Violet - well if you have a source for all 64, 96, or 128 box of
colors, then please let me know.  That would be nice to have - in Hex -
and have those colors as an addition to the color palette.  Plus is you
say that these are Crayola's colors, that might be useful for some
"artists".
