Hi Bettina, I think it's a problem that should be solved by your group. Frank FT->FST: This is a bug not an enhancement Hi, it seems to be fixed with the settings under tools options accessibility 'Automatically detect high contrast miode of operating system'. Switch it of and it should works as you expect. Frank closed fixed *Genuinely* a feature, not a bug! Apologies for the operator error. Created attachment 72323 |
Cell background colors, as set in cell formatting, are ignored (in favour of the OpenOffice document background color) if the Windows window background color is dark (as set in Display Properties | Appearance | Advanced in XP). By experiment "dark" seems to mean any color with components darker than RGB = {39, 39, 39}. This problem will therefore affect users whose Windows colors are chosen for light text on a dark background. I think this is the same as issue 13521 (which I do not seem to be able to reopen). The "high contrast" accessibility option sets the window background colour to black, hence its implication in that issue.
