There's at least three requests for this. Seems like a no-brainer guys. We don't need four different grayscales, three blues, but no red, purple, or teal gradient options. I don't want to use the hard-to-read, burn-your-eyes-out choices at the bottom. I like my spreadsheets to be color coded -and- readable.

Pleaseeeeeee we need more color options! This affects our staff schedule as we have switched over to using Excel online for our daily task schedule.

Extremely annoying to set one colour on the desktop version and not be able to set the same colour in the online version. I end up with spreadsheets with a mismatch of colours which should be the same.

Incredibly frustrating to move into the online version of Excel and suddenly have such limited color options. Why are there three different blues, but no purple or teal? I don't need 15 blues, but a few other colors (Custom colors like everything else???) should be bare minimum rather than one pigeon-holed color theme.

A choice of colours is a basic tool. Catch up excel.

Pink, I feel like we have a lot of not very attractive colors on excel. I feel like in the Theme colors we should have all the colors on the color wheel plus the lighter versions. Mustard brown is not a very popular color... but we need more female color options. Thanks

Please enable the ability to set custom colors with RGB codes like the desktop version.

Please add more colors. Very annoying to have to open Excel to use the advanced colors... defeats the purpose of Excel Online

Along these lines of color options, I really dislike how when you make a table online you can't change the color/style of that table unless you edit it offline. Spreadsheets are a visual tool as much as they are a data tool and color is a huge huge part of that.

The color choices are limited, we like the color wheel that is in our desktop version. We assign colors for various catergories and there aren't enough contrasting colors to choose from. Please add the colors pallette back!!

The colors in Excel Online are trash. Why is this hard? Why do I need to "vote" for the same color palette that already exists in both Drive and standard Excel. Get it together, Microsoft.

The old Color choice table under further colors should be available again. The Theme Colors in Exel Online are not very tasty and dont fullfill the nessecary wide range.
