Bug ID: 152999
Summary: UI: Document background color in settings overrides
cell background colors in Calc
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.4.3.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I am using a dark theme (Breeze dark) on KDE Neon (Ubuntu based) and until
recently (7.4?) Libreoffice applied this to the UI, but not to the document
area, which was fine to me.
Now the dark theme is also applied to the document background (previously this
was always white), which *would* be fine it Libreoffice *also* inverted the
text and text/cell/object background brightnesses so that documents stayed
legible even with a dark document canvas. (This is roughly what Microsoft does
when using a dark theme in Office and it makes a lot of sense.)
Even worse, if I set a manual document background in the settings, this is
applied, but then *overrides* any cell background or font background defined in
documents.
IMHO, at least the last thing is a bug:
LibreOffice's theme/color settings should not override colors defined within
documents. Either this should be fixed or we need two more checkboxes in the
style settings:
[x] These settings override colors defined within documents
and
[x] Invert brightness of colors defined within documents (use this for dark
document backgrounds)
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure dark theme on KDE Neon (Breeze dark)
1a. Configure "Document background color" to be "white", not auto
2. Open Libreoffice, also configure dark theme
3. Open a Calc document which has cell background colors defined
Actual Results:
Cell background colors are not visible in the document. Other colors are
visible.
Expected Results:
Cell background colors should be applied and visible.
(Possibly as an option, but as the default option.)
Reproducible: Always
