Bug ID: 116241
Summary: Customizing value highlighting colors for colorblind
users
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: accessibility
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Blocks: 101912, 112451
In Calc when View -> Value Highlighting is enabled, values are displayed as
follows:
"Text cells are formatted in black, formulas in green, number cells in blue,
and protected cells are shown with light grey background, no matter how their
display is formatted."

I received feedback that eg. green can be particularly hard/impossible to see
for colorblind users (of course it depends on the kind and degree of
colorblindness), so a way to configure the highlight colors could be useful.
As far as I can see the fixed colors are set here:
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/view/output.cxx#292
void ScOutputData::SetSyntaxMode( bool bNewMode ) { ... }
I'm not sure where the best place to set the colors would be: Application
Colors vs. Expert Configuration.
One could also argue towards setting up color profiles for different kinds of
color blindnesses, and provide sensible defaults, but that looks like a larger
chunk of work.
