Yes, in that dialog you can only select a color from the currently 
active palette. You have to change the palette before you open that 
dialog. That is not new.

Changing the palette in Writer or Calc needs a trick: Draw a shape, e.g. 
a rectangle, in its context menu use item Area. And there you can change 
the palette. It will become the currently active palette for the entire 
document. Afterward you can delete the shape.

This problem exists since the beginning of OpenOffice.

In newer LibreOffice versions is only the change, that you cannot have 
several user defined palettes but only one. It is still possible to have 
lot of palettes as common palettes, but they are not editable in the UI.

Kind regards
Regina
