I installed Open Office 3.1 yesterday. I was using 2.4. I use XP.
Today I find that I can scarcely
see highlighting any more, particularly in
Calc.
Has my eyesight (or memory) gone since
yesterday morning? Can I darken
highlighting?
...
this is a new feature in 3.1
"For OOo 3.1, the selection in Writer was adapted to use overlay with
transparency, similar to what was done in Calc before. That
transparency is fixed (50% for Writer, 75% for Calc), the color is
fetched from the system using the highlight/selection color. The old
method of XO'ring (inverting) the selection was not dismissed, but
re-implemented and is used when high contrast is used."
Please, what does "when high contrast is used" mean? How do I tell my
system (or OOo) to use "high contrast"?

On my Vista system with OOo 3.1 the highlight is in a blue which is
definitely visible but, of course, *slightly* less so than the black
that was used in the 2.4 version on my XP system. I certainly have no
difficulty seeing the highlighted area, even from a distance. In fact I
think I prefer the blue as it less "in your face".
