How do you change text color in LibreOffice Impress?

How do I change slide text color?

I don't see a format text menu ribbon like I am accustomed to seeing in Microsoft Powerpoint, nor do I see a collection of text editing options like in Google Documents.

Solution 1:

Found via searching menu bar Help > LibreOffice Help for 'color': Click View > Toolbars > Color Bar (scroll down; it is not alphabetized but rather at the bottom of the list), then with the text highlighted, click on the desired color panel in the bottom Color Bar (panel that appears beneath the slide).

Solution 2:

You can also add the "Text Formatting" toolbar to get access to all text formatting options. View > Toolbars > Text Formatting.

Sorry, LibreOffice, but this is quite non-intuitive (i.e. dumb). When one highlights text, the text formatting toolbar should automatically appear. No?

Solution 3:

Edit: I ended up here by searching "libreoffice impress font color formula", so there is my solution for coloring the Formula-Text

You can use coloring in your ormula by using the color tag:

color <color> {your math expression}

I wasn't able to use hex-Color-Codes, but only words, like

white black red green blue

There might be more usable colors.

I found it in the OpenOffice-Forum, but it works in LibreOffice too:
