Selecting a new color
LibreOffice lets you define custom colors using a two-dimensional graphic and numerical gradient chart of the Pick a Color dialog.
The Pick a Color Window
The Pick a Color dialog consists of four main areas.
-
The radio buttons select the color component of the color. This color component can be expressed in either RGB (Red, Green, Blue) or HSB (Hue, Saturation, Brightness) color models. The CMYK color model is not selectable and is provided only to ease the input of color values using CMYK notation.
-
The spin buttons are for entering the numerical value of the color component.
-
With the vertical color component slider you can modify the value of each component of the color. With the large colored square you can select the color component approximately.
-
The horizontal bottom color bar shows the current color and the new color, side by side.
Click in the big color area on the left to select a new color. Using this selector area you can modify two components of the color as represented in the RGB or HSB color models. Note that these are the two components not selected with the radio buttons on the right side of the dialog.
In the right part of the bottom bar, you will see the original color from the parent tab, Colors.
In the left part of the bottom bar, the current result of your work in this dialog is visible.
