I run OO 3.2. Yesterday, all text became black (probably automatic) and may not be changed to another color. The highlight color and background color works fine. Yes, I was screwing around with Tools->Options. I have tried to retrace my steps. No luck. So I uninstalled OO and reinstalled it. Same problem.

That means that whatever you did was saved in the per-user (not per-installation) configuration, which is intentionally (and usually helpfully) preserved across any reinstallation or upgrade.

What did I do wrong?

You probably put a tick in Tools | Options... | OpenOffice.org | Accessibility | Options for high contrast appearance | Use automatic font color for screen display.

And how do fix it?

Remove the tick.

Note that, if this is indeed the problem, the changes to font colour you attempted would have been successful and would have shown if you actually printed your document. The setting merely causes the text to appear in high contrast (normally black-on-white) on the editing screen.

I trust this helps.
