Bug ID: 154559
Summary: default to dark workspace background / page background
when macOS set to dark
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: macOS (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Really nice to see dark mode support. But even after
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152184 as been fixed, the
workspace background remains white despite having set Application Colors to
Automatic and Automatic to System Theme.
What's with the "WYSIWYG" logic?
Printing is becoming a rare thing in 2023 and I don't believe users think that
a black page with white font will be printed when they use dark mode.

seems to agree and defaults to
a) automatically following system settings by default
b) uses dark workspace background
It would be great if LibreOffice applied the same logic, at least for macOS.
Having the ability to use dark mode with white workspace background and vice
versa is great, but should not be the default. I am not familiar enough with
how this is handled on windows. Documentation refers to a toggle specifically
for page background.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. set macOS to dark mode
2. set LibreOffice > Application Colors to Automatic
3. set Automatic to System Theme
Actual Results:
white page background
Expected Results:
dark page background
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
