I can't bring up the font color chooser. The Font Color button on the toolbar is outside the screen. So I have to click on the button at the very end of the toolbar to get to it. However, when I do get it I can only apply the color. I see no way to bring up the color chooser. So, to change font color I have to go to Format > Character > Font Effects > Font color. That gives me a drop down where I can change the color with no problems. Now, getting out of that dialog box is tricky because the OK, Cancel buttons are right next to the edge at the very bottom of the screen, but it can be done after a little practice. So far, I have not ran into any situation that I can't get out of, but I haven't played with it enough.

Another advantage of going to OOo directly is that there is a bit more screen real estate since there is no LXDE taskbar.
