Bug ID: 166765
Summary: Setting appearance to light while Windows is in dark
mode breaks colors
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.2.3.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I use Windows in dark mode by default; however, I want LibreOffice to be in
light mode because it's a lot more readable that way and I'm used to it.
If I switch Windows to light mode, LibreOffice looks the way I want it to.
If I go back to dark mode and switch LibreOffice appearance to light, suddenly
the background color of the page is black, which looks pretty jarring.
I'd expect switching to light to look the same as when the entire OS is set to
light, which is not the case here.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Windows to dark mode in system settings
2. Open Writer
3. Go to Tools > Options > Appearance and set Appearance to Light
4. LibreOffice will ask for a restart
5. Restart
6. Open Writer
Actual Results:
The page background is black.
Expected Results:
The page background should be white, as if the OS was in light mode.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
