            Bug ID: 163812
           Summary: sw sidebar: background fill not updated (immediately)
                    in page sidebar when page-style is changed
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3 all versions
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: implementationError
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: low
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]

In Draw, the sidebar is immediately updated if Format - Page style changes the
background. But in Writer, some external trigger (like print preview) is needed
to cause that information to refresh.
-changing the paper size forces a full refresh, but changing "Right and Left"
to "Mirrored" doesn't.

Steps to reproduce:
1.) start a new writer document and open the sidebar - look at page properties
and see that background is set to none
2.) Format - Page Style and change the Area from None to a Color.

Expected: the sidebar should be signalled when the background fill is changed.
Actual: background still reported as NONE

The "page" sidebar was developed during LO 5.3 as an experimental feature, and
acted this way right from the beginning. But this looks like it is a missing
invalidation issue in cui/source/tabpages/tpbitmap.cxx, not a sidebar issue.
