    I feel I am wasting a lot of time trying to determine what color value is currently defined from one object to the other. Some colors are so similar when looking in small portion that its hard to distinguish.

    It would be nice if when you have a color set it would actually put a border around the current selected color from the pallete list if its a standard in the pick list or recently used.

    Come on Microsoft, this is in every other Office product! How can I tell if I've selected "White, 10% Darker", "White, 20% Darker", or "White, 30% Darker"??

    I've been using Power BI since it was a plug-in for Excel and am floored that this isn't a feature already and also that there aren't more votes for it.
