--- Comment #2 from Gerhard Weydt <gerhard.weydt at t-online.de> ---
I think this is the normal behaviour, it's the same in Writer and Calc (and
Draw, but that's no surprise).
The reason is that there is a second attribute for both the filling and the
line, namely Line style and Area style/Filling, which are set to "- none -" and
"None", respectively, in the case of a text field. You must set these to
"continuous" (for example) and "Color", to be able to see the line and fill
color you set. Do it before you set the color!
Unfortunately, the line and filling toolbar seems not to be active
automatically for Impress, otherwise you would have noticed that. Instead of
activating this toolbar, you can also use the context menu, or Format -> Object
and shape, where you can also set these attributes via the menu entries Line
and Area.
So the problem boils down to a possible request that the two symbols in the
Drawing toolbar should be inactive if the second attributes named above have
these none attributes.
I propose that you set the status to RESOLVED and WORKSFORME or NOTABUG, and
file a new bug with importance "enhancement" for the suggested request, if you
think it worthwhile.
