Description Jan Lahoda 2001-11-02 09:48:51 UTC 
Go into Tools/Options/Editing/Editor Settings/Java Editor/Font&colors dialog.
For default text, change both foreground and background color to AWT Color.
Now, change foreground color (via dialog, not via combo box). Very probably the
background color is changed to the same color.
This happens in many combinations (foreground->background,
background->foreground, for different types of colors, ...) , but the above
looks most reproducible.
Build is 200111020735 (beta 3 cand.)
Comment 1 Martin Roskanin 2001-11-02 17:06:10 UTC 
This behaviour is visible in build 29.10. Since the dev build from 30.10 I even can not get combo box for 
AWT colors.

I suppose it is property sheet problem, reassigning.
Comment 2 David Strupl 2001-11-05 09:25:47 UTC 
1. The combo presence - it is as designed, what appears depends on the
last tab selected in the dialog. Try different tabs and you will
notice different values in the combo or for RGB the text field. If you
have any problems with this please consult nbui and suggest better
solution.

2. The display of the second color panel is affected. This is clearly
a bug but at least the value is not affected - the editor preserves
the value that you entered and this is used for the real value (not
talking about the display).

I need to check whether the problem is in ColorEditor,
explorer-propertysheet or "Fonts and Colors" dialog.
