Bug ID: 166933
Summary: UI toolbar readability issues with system set to dark
mode (Linux mint)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.7.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Using libre with the computer set to dark mode many of the toolbar items are
near or entirely unreadable due to the programmes own text colour being dark
grey against the dark grey background.
I have tried changing the font colour in tools>options in all view/application
colours/accessibility and none of those allowed me to see the items any better.
The only way I have found to make these items readable is to change the
programme to light mode which is really not preferable as that causes issues
with my eyes
This issue occurs across writer/calc/draw/impress
Steps to Reproduce:
1. set system theme to dark mode
2. open libre office application
3. note that many of the items in the toolbar are unreadable or near unreadable
due to clashing of default text colour
4. change the appearance to light mode to confirm that these icons only have
visibility issues in dark mode
Actual Results:
you will see that many icons cannot be seen unless you hover over them as that
changes their colour slightly
Expected Results:
you should be able to load into the application with the system or application
set to dark mode and be able to see all of the items in the same way you are
able to in light mode
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
