[Lazarus] How to edit color value in Object inspector

[JuuS]

I also found this confusing a bit ago when I wanted to set colors.

I resorted to loading a color picker, tuning the colors I wanted and
storing those values later to be used in a case statement.

The problem was in the Object Inspector one cannot put value, one must
use the drop down color picker. In the color picker one can only put a
color in the form of #AABBCC. But what comes back from the Picker is a
value in the form $00CCBBAA.

What one would want is to have the picker allow input that is the same
as what as what the picker outputs, ja?

I just worked around it, but since it seems to be a confusion for more
than just myself, I throw in these two cents... ;-)
