Or don't I understand you?
Writer has two background colour functions, one is "Highlight" (can highlight single characters, words, etc. – the icon is a text marker) and the other is "Background Colour" (changes background colour for entire lines – icon is a page with a gradient, like in Calc). The highlighter is already a split button, but "Background Colour" is not. > I have tried to implement the behaviour for font colour in Calc, but didn't > succeed. Sad face. > Should I receive usefull hints, I am quite willing to implement the same > behaviour for font colour too. Happy face; though I can't help much in the area of actually implementing it. By the way, I've actually just discovered even more buttons that would be eligible for the split-button treatment... * In Writer's Table toolbar, there are buttons for Background Colour and Line Colour * Impress/Draw's Text Formatting toolbar contains a Font Colour button * Impress/Draw's Table toolbar also contains a Line Colour button * there are more places but those are probably less used/important, like the 3D-Settings toolbar(s)'s 3D Colour/Extrusion Colour (If you're feeling overwhelmed now, I'd offer to open bugs for all of the functions that I find, in the hope that someone, not necessarily you, converts them later.)
