Bug Description

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

When someone has marked to many buttons as visible for the toolbar, there a new button appears (as a down-arrow like v) which when pressed appears the extra buttons (the ones that doesn't fit to the toolbar) in a collapsible menu.

If the button "background color" or "fill color" (the one that fills the background color of a word or phrase) doesn't appear on the toolbar, but is placed to the collapsible menu, then the button doesn't work.

Normally, when pressed it should "open a toolbar where you can click a background color for a paragraph". But this doesn't happen.

This bug i know that can be confirmed by other people.

I can confirm this problem. If the button is in the normal tab, it opens up palette which allows to choose a color. Wenn it is collapsed in the menu, it does not open the palette, but only takes of the background in the line of the cursor.

OpenOffice Version 2.2.0-1ubuntu3

There are no new official OpenOffice.org releases in Ubuntu packaging anymore => Won't Fix

If the problem persists, please mark this bug as "also affects project Libreoffice" or "also affects distribution Libreoffice (Ubuntu)" if that has not happened already.
