No, I don't know the file html.soc. It took a while to find it, had to search
System and non-indexed locations as it is well hidden away. However, I have no
idea of how to make use of this file, as the colours appear nowhere. If there is
a way to load them as a palette easily, fine, but I see none. Even so, I'm sure
you don't suggest users should have to edit obscure system files to get a better
colour palette. But it seems they are there for some purpose, which is good.
Obviously I realise writing HTML documents is not its main purpose, but since it
makes a point of being able to, it seems a good default palette to have
available, although by no means the only possible palette. Whether loaded by
default is not as important as being able to open it when needed. OOo also comes
with a Drawing program, after all, so being able to at least LOAD an extended
palette like the Named HTML colours palette would be a Good Thing.
So my request stand for a better palette, and this one is a reasonable choice to
have available. especially as you say the system knows of it already. Granted,
it's optimised for RGB, not for printing. Having a more comprehensive one for
Draw, like the palette in Inkscape (although SVG is a Web format too), on by
default is more important than for Writer or Calc, nonetheless having a nice
preset palette handy would be good for them too.
Maybe Draw could have a scrollable colourbar like Inkscape. When the Drawing
toolbar is activated in Writer or Calc, they too could have this scrollable
colourbar above the drawing tools. However these are separate feature requests.
I changed the component to Draw, though it relates to all the modules.
for the record, on Windows html.soc is in
C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.4\presets\config
or for OOo3beta in
C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org\Basis 3.0\presets\config
