Right, I saw your changes but didn't evaluate the extent. > > For Calc I have looked around, but could not find the place yet. So if > someone can provide a pointer, then it might work.

Shall I change the rendering of "cyan" and "magenta" > to the light colors too? Personally, I would make them consistent from this day forward, so I would say "yes" make MathML the same as Calc. I just found this reference area for color codes/names-- http://www.rapidtables.com/web/color/cyan-color.htm cyan = aqua in rgb http://www.rapidtables.com/web/color/purple-color.htm same for magenta = fuchsia Others may have a different opinion though. > > Kind regards > Regina > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- MzK "One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star." -- Friedrich Nietzsche --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
