Description nmailhot 2006-07-21 10:47:51 UTC 
OO.o should allow defining a directory where the Gimp, Inkscape and OO.o would
read-write colour palette definitions in a common format

It would be really nice for OpenOffice.org to collaborate with existing color
standards in Gimp and Inkscape.

They already have existing files (*.gpl) for color palettes, essentially simple
text files, with a small header + line for each color, like:
233  50   9    This is one of my colors

At the very least, having ability for import/export of .gpl files, would be nice.

To manage the many suggestions for enhancing the color palette, I have created a
meta-issue here:
Issue 105642 - Re-design and UI improvements for color palettes (meta-issue)

The purpose of the new issue is for management only, it does not duplicate
specific design requests (that we wish to capture).

Many thanks,
Andrew
