            Bug ID: 130967
           Summary: Need colorpicker (eyedropper) for color selection
                    dialog-buttons
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.0 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: framework
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: eyalroz at technion.ac.il

Description:
Different LO apps have color settings which can be made from toolbar buttons: A
dialog opens up when you click the "down-triangle" at the side of a toolbar
button, which offers several color palettes; recently-used colors; and custom
color selection from another dialog.

Those dialogs should also offer an eyedropper (button) as an option, which lets
you point to a place in the document, drawing or slide, and pick its
(composite) color for the setting.

That is especially useful for when one wants to pick a color out of a
multi-colored background image, none of whose pixel colors are in the list of
recently-used colors.

Also, and in addition to the above, if one chooses to set a custom color - we
should allow clicks outside the color selection dialog to serve as though an
eyedropper has been used, just like clicks inside the color space rectangle
inside the dialog - but with the composite color at the outside point in the
document where we clicked.


Note: Marking this as "framework", because it's not specific to any single app:
Writer, Draw, Impress, Calc - all have at least a text color dialog-button.
