Did the default colour scheme change somewhere along the line in the RadEditor? We're using 2009.1.402.35, and where it used to be the "websafe" palette by default, I'm getting some odd colours---the first line now starts with:
(empty) #000000 #eeece1 #1f497d #4f81bd ...
I know I can can fix this by overriding it in the ToolsFile.xml, but it seems like the default should indeed be the (so-called) websafe colours by default:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/colors.html
Could it be getting the colours from somewhere else?
Thanks,
-Mike

Hi Mike,
Yes, the default color scheme was changed. The new palette uses "theme" color variations. They are not "web safe" and they may not look the same on different screens, but use common color/gamma and provide good contrast.
The idea is to make the picker more useful to the end user. The new color scheme allows faster and more consistent styling in the process of document formatting.
However, if you don’t like the default color scheme and prefer the “web safe” one instead, you can override the hex values with those from http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/colors.html, namely:
"","#ffcccc","#ffcc99","#ffff99","#ffffcc","#99ff99","#99ffff","#ccffff","#ccccff","#ffccff","#cccccc","#ff6666","#ff9966","#ffff66","#ffff33","#66ff99","#33ffff","#66ffff","#9999ff","#ff99ff","#c0c0c0","#ff0000","#ff9900","#ffcc66","#ffff00","#33ff33","#66cccc","#33ccff","#6666cc","#cc66cc","#999999","#cc0000","#FF6600","#FFCC33","#FFCC00","#33CC00","#3366FF","#00CCCC","#6633FF","#CC33CC","#666666","#990000","#cc6600","#cc9933","#999900","#009900","#339999","#3333ff","#6600cc","#993399","#333333","#660000","#993300","#996633","#666600","#006600","#336666","#000099","#333399","#663366","#000000","#330000","#663300","#663333","#333300","#003300","#003333","#000066","#330099","#330033"
