Bug ID: 159535
Summary: Writer comments have a shadow that is hardcoded onto a
white background even in dark mode
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: nekoh...@gmail.com
Description:
The shadow under Writer's comments does not adapt to dark mode on Linux,
whether toggled live or before starting the app.
Please see the attached screenshot.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Switch your OS to dark theme mode
2. Insert a comment in Writer, type something in it
3. Press "Esc" to exit the comment
4. Optional: hover with the mouse over/outside the comment
Actual Results:
The shadow is brighter than the backdrop behind the comments.
It seems its gradient was hardcoded to a previously lighter backdrop color
stop.
It is more obvious in dark mode because the margin's backdrop color is darker;
if looking closely however, this might even be noticed with the light color
scheme.
The shadow's behavior changes depending on hover status, too.
Expected Results:
The shadow gradient should use the backdrop color from the comments margin.
In dark mode, maybe there should be no shadow at all;
otherwise you'll need a darker shadow.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
