Office 2011: issue with recent colors

[Berlin45]

When using customized colors (i.e. for fonts / fill ), it was possible (in older Excel / Excel under windows / PPT 2011 Mac) to reuse the color later on in your document. This by selecting the customized color in the drop down in the recent color section. This section is not showing up anymore in my Excel 2011. I was sure that last week it still did. Any help? Thanks

Hi, did you get any response or have you found an answer to the issue elsewhere? I have the same problem, I cannot see last used (custom) color. Also, when using 'copy format' e.g. to copy the color of one cell and past onto another simply doesn't work. Text will be formatted but color just doesn't change, really weird. Anyway, will post the question in a new post.
Cheers, Marc
