using 2/15 build of mozilla 1) launch mozilla 2) launch editor 3) insert some text 4) highlight the text 5) use color picker to change the text to different color notice following problems: a) after you select color notice the selected state of the text blue on black b) sometimes after selecting colro the text shows up partially selected..... all platforms.
the blue on black when selected is the effect of the current inverting (XOR) selection algorithm. Mike will be changing this Not sure about the other problem -- I don't see it. I'll let him dup this or see if there's a selection drawing problem

Summary: color picker problems → color picker problems (selection doesn't display properly)
Target Milestone: M15
Color picker is exposed on the Mail compose toolbar as well as the Composer toolbar. Since the color picker icon is quite discoverable, people will try it at least once. If it is broken, it may reflect negatively on Seamonkey.

we no longer use XOR. we force a color and forecolor on the user. this bug is not valid. i believe there is another bug on not being able to see the results of a color change but thats getting picky ;()
