Priority: medium
Bug ID: 81477
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: ACCESSIBILITY: Unable to set low contrast
background+font color (non-high contrast O/S theme)
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: owen.ge...@gmail.com
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.6.2 release
Component: UI
Product: LibreOffice

Screenshot showing options and result of displayed text under LOv4302.
Problem description: This may be closed as NOTABUG but it would be good to get
clarity on why this is happening. Selecting a low contrast background and font
colour pair results in the font colour not being respected (irrespective of the
O/S theme or other LO settings). The workaround is to select a font colour
offering higher contrast with the background. It appears to affect all
components (Tools > Options... > LibreOffice > Appearance settings) and date
back to at least v3.5.7.2. Related AskLO thread:
http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/37148/
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Writer.
2. Tools > Options... > LibreOffice > Appearance > under the "General"list set
"Background color" to Black and set "Font color" to Blue 4 (refer attached).
3. Ensure Tools > Options... > Accessibility > "Options for high contrast
appearance" section > first two options are unchecked (default). No
high-contract theme is selected in O/S.
4. Click OK.
Current behavior:
Text is displayed in White.
Expected behavior:
Text is displayed in Blue 4.
Setting either the background colour to Gray 7 or the font colour to Blue 2
offers a workaround. Tested under GNU/Linux (Debian 7 x86_64 + LXDE/Openbox
with Taqua theme and Crunchbang 11 x86_64 + Openbox with default Crunchbang
theme) using:
- v3.5.7.2 Build ID: 3215f89-f603614-ab984f2-7348103-1225a5b
- v4.1.6.2 Build ID: 40ff705089295be5be0aae9b15123f687c05b0a
- v4.2.5.2 Build ID: 61cb170a04bb1f12e77c884eab9192be736ec5f5
- v4.3.0.2 Build ID: 14ed55896fdfcb93ff437b85c4f3e1923d2b1409
- v4.4.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 3fdd4f069d5436cf39708004af7fda8175fbc4c2
Behaviour is identical in all cases. Linked AskLO thread reports same issue
under Windows 7 for v4.2.5.2.
