V13: colour dialogues
« on: November 22, 2016, 12:20:54 pm »
Colour dialogues


For a brief minute I hoped that colour dialogues had become more consistent, and been improved, viz from the ribbon and in the note editor



But no change from the diagram context menu, for example




I'm looking forward to the 'in diagram' colour menus being updated

Yes, depressing to find not much has changed.

There used to be three different colour pickers.  I'm pretty sure in v12 we dropped down to two (I had logged a feature request to standardize on one).

Looks like that floating diagram toolbar got missed when the colour dropdowns were updated to provide the same set of colours.

You'll have to talk to Microsoft about the dropdown from the font dialog though. I don't really want to see us start replacing standard Windows dialogs. There's too much on that dialog that we could miss if we replaced it.
