Description Katarina Behrens (Inactive) 2015-04-15 14:15:18 UTC
This only happens in Impress (I've tried similar steps in Calc and Draw and there it works as expected). 

How to reproduce:
1. New Impress document
2. Type something into the slide title field 
3. Select portion of the text with mouse
4. Click Font Colour split button (right half of it) in sidebar so that a font colour pop-up dialog appears
5. Click palette selection combo box and try to change the colour palette to something else than default ...
6. ... and realize you can't because by now the whole dialog has disappeared

This might be desktop-environment and OS-specific -- I'm on Fedora 21 and use KDE

I was able to change the palette.

The oddness ... so the trick seems to be, do steps 3, 4 and 5 repeatedly.

I've tried again and for 1st time, I was able to change the palette, too. 2nd and every consecutive time (i.e. when I selected another portion of the text, clicked font colour button and wanted to changed the palette) not anymore. The dialog closed on click.

Just tested again, changed the palette and colored text 4 times without problems.

Aw, so this seem to be KDE-specific. Adjusting summary accordingly

Tried the same w/ GNOME and there it works. The major difference is that in GNOME, the pop-up dialog opens over the sidebar, approx. where the font colour button is. In KDE, the pop-up dialog is floating somewhere in the middle of the screen.

ubuntu 15.04 + KDE

Confirmed - no need to repeat, happens every time on first try.

Note: Also happens for top toolbar - not sidebar specific for me at least.

Seems like there are quite a few issues with toolbars and dialogs in KDE, I just reported another: bug 90759, and I know of at least one other. Wonder if this is a larger issue that requires further investigation.

Setting to:
Major - cannot use color palettes at all in KDE, think it deserves major.
High - default seems appropriate.

also not limited to impress - setting component to LibreOffice.

Works again after http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=c4bae028efbd32c8938c3a6051d58c1f202d5b8a
