Where does the help file come from, it seems to be here (/aoo-4.1.9/main/helpcontent2/source/text/) in 4.1.9...
Okay... Location is same in trunk (helpcontent2/source/text) .. asf - Revision 1887653: Looking in main/helpcontent2/source/text/swriter/guide/background.xhp Line 55 - CORRECT Line 67 - INCORRECT (requires updating) <paragraph xml-lang="en-US" id="par_id3151245" role="listitem" l10n="U" oldref="10">On the <emph>Area</emph> tab page, select the background color or a background graphic.</paragraph> Line 81 - CORRECT --end-- Looking in main/helpcontent2/source/text/shared/guide/background.xhp Line 55 - INCORRECT (requires updating) <paragraph xml-lang="en-US" id="par_id3149581" role="listitem" l10n="U" oldref="26">On the <emph>Area</emph> tab page, select a background color or a background graphic.</paragraph> --end-- Cannot find origins of "Defining Graphics or Colors in the Background of Pages (Watermark)" - Also requires updating The page "Defining Graphics or Colors in the Background of Pages (Watermark)" then links to "Background tab page" Cannot find origins of "Background tab page" - Also requires updating referencing "Background" instead of "Area" under the "To access this command... " subheading. :) Conclusion: Some cases of "<emph>Background</emph> tab" needs to be updated to "<emph>Area</emph> tab" to be correct. Some of the format windows use "Area" instead of "Background", so the help documentation does not relate with the name of the tabs. In my case, on my 4.5.0 version; Paragraph uses "Area" Page uses "Area" Paragraph Style uses "Area" Picture uses "Area" Frame uses "Area" Object uses "Area" Character uses "Background" Table uses "Background" :) ________________________________ From: Matthias Seidel Sent: Monday, March 15, 2021 8:48 AM To: dev@openoffice.apache.org Subject: Re: Minor amendment to F1 help or formatting windows Hi Dean, Am 14.03.21 um 20:34 schrieb Dean.Webber: > My bad, am using Apache OpenOffice 4.5.0 (AOO450m1 Build:9900 Rev:facded3995) > it an ASF Buildbot realease, Linux. > > I am planning to purchase additional hardware in the future, and will be > using the 4.1.9 or 4.2.0 builds on those machines for testing purposes.

I just tested with AOO 4.5.0 on Windows 10 (en-US) and the tab is called "Area" as described in the help file. Note: There has been a change between 4.1.X and 4.5.0(trunk)/4.2.0.
