Hello,

Thank you for the report.

I observe the same result in versions 24.8.2.1 and 24.2.7.2, as well. 
I will be assigning this to the UX team for further discussion and consideration.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Open Calc
2) Right click on the sheet tab
3) Select “Tab Color…”
4) Select a color > OK
5) Add another tab by clicking on “+” icon
6) Right click on the newly added sheet tab
7) Select “Tab Color…”
* Notice that there is no “Recent Colors” in Calc. In Excel, there is “Recent Colors” and the color selected at step 4 is listed

The version I used:

Version: 24.8.2.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 0f794b6e29741098670a3b95d60478a65d05ef13
CPU threads: 8; OS: macOS 13.6.3; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Version: 24.2.7.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: ee3885777aa7032db5a9b65deec9457448a91162
CPU threads: 8; OS: macOS 13.6.3; UI render: default; VCL: osx

Here is another problem with the same dialog:

spreadsheet tabs do not indicate its personalized color

It would be good to discuss at the same time.
Comment 5 Heiko Tietze 2024-11-11 07:59:30 UTC 
Sure, it would be appropriate to have the default color picker on this control as well.
