Description: In the cell formatting dialog, you might forget the name of the last used palette for background color. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open new Calc. 2. Select Cell [A1]. 3. Open Format Cells Dialog. ( Ctrl + 1 ) 4. Set background color. Select Last Palette in Drop-down list. (It should probably be set to "Document colors") Select Black ( maybe top left ) OK 5. Select Cell [A1], and reopen the Dialog. See Palette drop-down of background color. Actual Results: 6. The displayed palette name is "Compatibility" in Windows-OS. "LibreOffice" in Linux-OS? or, Instead of "Document colors", a different palette name appears. Expected Results: 6. The displayed palette name is "Document colors". Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: The order of items in the list may vary depending on the language used. For clarity, we recommend selecting either black or white from the palette listed below. It appears to search for the same color and display the top palette name that includes that color, excluding "Custom". Therefore, even if you register "Black" under "Custom" and select it, the palette name won't become "Custom" when you open it next. You can't properly utilize your custom palette. When selecting an unconfigured cell [A2] in step [5.] to set a new background color, the last used palette name will be displayed. This issue seems to occur when the background color has already been set.

bibisected with linux-64-26.2 I applied 'black' from the 'Standard' palette, but when I reopened it, it became the 'compatibility' palette. I applied 'white' from the 'Standard' palette, but when I reopened it, it became the 'HTML' palette. commit 676892af95079d00c19527b94396aacf4136bf0d author Jim Raykowski related tdf#163347: sync color table with active color *** adding CC: Jim Raykowski Please, take a look?
Hi all, Here's a second attempt at this: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/195265 This time if the 'Active' color isn't found in the current palette (last palette used) color table, searching other palettes for the color is not done. It simply does not select any color item in the palette color table. An example of the 'Active' color not being found in the current palette color table: 1. Assign a background color to a cell from the 'Standard' palette that isn't in the 'LibreOffice' palette, say Red ff0000. 2. Assign a background color to a different cell from the 'LibreOffice' palette, any color will do. 3. Open the background color tab page for the cell in step 1. Results: The color table for the 'LibreOffice' palette is shown with no selected color in the table because the background color for the cell, the 'Active' color' was set in step 1 to not be a color in the 'LibreOffice' palette.
