Dominik, thank you a lot, much appreciated. I will give it a try. For my own curiosity just a question please: My implicit work-around via fillID worked, so I wonder why there are two different ways for achieving the same even with inconsistent results.
What I mean is: should the value of "applyFill" (or getFillForegroundColorColor()) not directly depend on the value of fillID just for being consistent? Only thinking though, I am not an expert on that topic but a rather happy end-user. Cheers and thank you again Andreas On Wed, 2015-03-18 at 19:43 +0100, Dominik Stadler wrote: > Hi, > > I did a fix lately under bug 56295 - > https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56295, POI previously > did use a default of "false" for the "applyfill" attribute, whereas > Excel and LibreOffice seem to use "true" as default.
