* Should the change be made to both the initialization screen and the control panel?
* Should the change be made to both the initialization screen and the control panel?
:: The most recent patch only modifies the control panel. I would appreciate feedback from the design team re eliminating the color selector all together from the initial screen, so as to eliminate a step. A random color can be assigned and modified from the control panel if desired. (In my experience, kids love to change their colors, but it is a time-consuming process that should not be a required part of initialization. Eliminating it from initialization would allow a teacher to have more control over the flow.)

==== Take II ====
As per [[Design_Team/0.88_Meeting#Enhanced_Color_Selector|the latest discussion]], summarized below, I have made some new patches that are attached to the ticket.
:A new design has been brought on the table. The arrows could be dropped (current design [1]) from the design and only next/previous fill/stroke XOs colors on all 4 sides of the large one could be shown.
This would make it possible to adjust the color in four directions. The form can be seen as a plus, not to be confused with a cross. Walter has been proposed to make the code changes needed for this design proposal.
