          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 79381
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Color of non-printable characters is hard-coded to
                    light blue
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.3.0.0.beta1
         Component: Writer
           Product: LibreOffice

After a change during the 4.3 development cycle, non-printable characters are
now displayed in a light blue (see bug 68071). This is a bit unfortunate for
several reasons:

+ lacks desktop integration (e.g. Ubuntu usually uses orange or purple as
  accent colors, several other Linux desktops are rather grayish, not sure
  whether anyone even thought about high-contrast themes)

+ colour is hard to see for many people


Ideas:

+ Normal case: use desktop selection color with ~50-75% opacity (if the
  desktop already uses a half-transparent selection color, use that colour)

+ High-contrast user: use the default desktop selection colour, unless it is
  white/black, in which case use a dark blue.

+ For the people that find the default hard to see: offer a check box
  on the accessibility page that allows them to enable a mode where the
  selection colour is used at 100 percent opacity.

:/
