The area color you get for the selected area when you make a selection of text
in a Writer document.

Although - I need to be more specific and say I meant that color when you're in
Light mode with the default theme.

The existence of a canvas isn't inherentl. Paragraph (and character) styles do
not make that assumption.

But regardless - the decision what color the canvas should be in the style
gallery is a decision that we make.

Do you mean you didn't follow what I was saying, or that the argument is
outlandish?

Removing the labels, in itself, does not resolve this bug. If the removal of
labels is implemented in a way which avoids two distinctly colored areas - then
it is simply a choice of one of the three options I suggested here. But it
might be implemented differently.

I don't object to that statement, and and none of the three options I'm
suggesting contradicts it.

So, shall we that a constraint on the implementation for a fix for bug 169763?
