[Inkscape-user] I can not choose a fill color

Hi,

when I draw a box, it is transparent (the border is colored ok).

This is what i see in "Fill and stroke":

I tried to choose "Remove fill", but when i set a color again, the squares pattern on the left keeps in "Fill:" (look at the image) in "Fill and stroke".

0.48 and Ubuntu 12.10.
