--- Comment #5 from Kenneth Hanson <khanson679@gmail.com> ---
Support for themes and/or color schemes would be a huge improvement. Even for
advanced users, built-in themes are a great as a starting point, and the
ability to create your own would make it easier to keep templates for various
kinds of documents in sync.
It might be helpful to look at how MS Office does this. It's been several years
since I've used it, but I remember in Powerpoint 2010 there was a drop-down
that offered basic shapes with several colors and designs much like the
attachments here, and several nice built-in color schemes. Word also provided
several style sets for text with previews (which were rather ugly).
I have no idea how these are implemented. In the case of LO drawing objects,
I'm imagining a system where each main style come with several child styles,
one for each theme color. Probably just 4-5 would be adequate for most uses.
Then, changing the theme would change the colors (and perhaps other attributes)
of these styles.
Something like:
- Object with fill 1 (main theme color)
- Object with fill 2
- Object with fill 3
- Object with fill 4
- Object without fill 1
- Object without fill 2
...
I agree with Regina that the current built-in drawing styles need some cleanup,
but unless ODF has some other provision for color schemes, I suspect something
like this would be required.
