Color is selected, thus the expected behaviour

Color is active,thus tab shows the color information. why would 'no background' be the expected behaviour. Just click on None and no color will be applied.
Closing as RESOLVED NOTABUG

1. How can the 'color' button be active, without the footer having a background color set by default?

2. Hoover at the footer (blue footer button appears). Click on the arrow (menu expands) -> Select borders & backgrounds -> None is pre-selected (as what I would expect). So there is at least an inconsistency
Comment 4 Dieter 2020-04-08 11:20:04 UTC
I agree with Xisco (If you press OK you take the colour from New), but I think there is a bug, but a little different

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Writer
2. Format => Page Style => Footer (tab)
3. Footer on
4. More Button => Area tab => Colour (Active is "black" = none color; Setting for new is blue) => Cancel
5. Click at the bottom of the page. Blue footer bar appears, click add footer
6. Format -> Page Styles -> Footer (tab)
7. More Button -> Area tab => Colour

Result: Active is now blue (same as new)
Expected result: should be "black" (like above)

Created attachment 161765 [details]
Both None and Color are active

I can follow Telesto's description. 

New > Format > Page > Footer > [on] > More... = None
Header/Footer widget > + > Page > Footer > [on] > More... = None/Color
(same for Header)

Expectation is only None is selected.
