OK, you are set to work with Skia/raster rendering. 

As updates occur, please recheck behavior of graphics with Skia/Vulkan
rendering. The two icons may-or-maynot clear up.

For now let's resolve this => WFM, but feel free to reopen if in testing
Skia/Vulkan, or working in Skia/raster, UI rendering becomes much worse.

I set up the solution with skia and raster ("forza il rendering del software
skia") and it seems to work perfectly!
It seems even faster than before !!! :-)
I attach the skia cache log.
I'm starting to think there was a recent update of an Intel driver in my pc
that created this "problem" .. let's see what happens in the future ..
Can I still leave the settings as I put them now (skia and raster: "forza il
rendering del software skia")?
Even if the drivers were to update?

Skia drivers and the Skia implementation in LibreOffice is being actively
developed. While Vulkan vector hardware acceleration may be problematic with
older hardware/driver pairs, the Skia raster rendering should be reliable and
an improvement over GDI based rendering.  If Vulkan works with your GPU/driver
combination, great use it!  If it has problems, be sure to update drivers and
retest. If still has issues--disable it and use Skia raster rendering.

Only if both modes of Skia rendering have trouble--disable and use the default
GDI rendering, just expect that it will be slower.

The backing window for the two icons are redrawn dynamically depending on the
color you've picked. They're not static. That they are black when you are using
Skia Vulkan rendering is a glitch, but if that is the only glitch for an
otherwise well supported GPU (like your Intel HD Grapchics 630) then keep using
it (but do update the driver as Intel provides--the Vulkan and general Skia lib
support is constantly being improved).  But if you are more comfortable (or if
the GPU/driver pairing is given "Deny list" handling) just work in Skia
software raster mode.

With "svg" the icons appear to be normal (perhaps slightly less defined).
What are the differences?
For example, in a more modern PC that I use I must necessarily change the
settings with "svg" to see the icons correctly (and not grainy), but I have
never had the problems of "black icons" as on the PC of the "bug" that I
reported.

Thanks a lot for the answer. I guess that the problem is more related to my
hardware which is not very modern... or?
As you can see in the attachment "test setup", with the modification of the
skia settings, in fact, the problem seems solved (with both settings changes)!

ok. it just seemed strange to me that with the same pc it didn't happen before
(with the previous releases)

Ok !!! I understood! ;-)
I'll do some more testing in the next few days, but I think I'll use this
setting you suggested: "You can change to the software raster mode by the
checkbox 'Force Skia software render'".
One last question: to me as an end user, something changes in terms of usage or
speed of l.o. using, or not, skia in its different ways?
What changes for me in practice?
Am I losing any advantage?

Skia based rendering is the default rendering, the alternative is legacy GDI
based rendering.  Skia has two modes, 1) Vulkan vector graphics support
(replacing OpenGL hardware acceleration); 2) software only raster rendering

You are using the Vulkan mode of Skia. You can change to the software raster
mode by the checkbox 'Forza il rendering del software Skia' and restarting
LibreOffice.  Do the icons clear?

Alternatively, you can disable all Skia rendering. Uncheck 'Usa Skia per tutti
i rendering' and restart LibreOffice.  Restart will be into GDI 'default' mode,
do the icons clear then?

It replaces the poorly supported OpenGL based GPU hardware acceleration of
vector graphics. It also provides improved framework for raster based rendering
compared to legacy default GDI calls. It is being implemented for all supported
operating systems--i.e. it is cross platform

Maybe, although your Intel HD GRaphics 630 GPU should be well supported.
Performance with Skia rendering (either mode) has proven reliable and more
robust than GDI or previous OpenGL based libs. We are not going to revert its
use.  Identifying bugs related to either Vulkan or raster based Skia
implementation is ongoing to improve LibreOffices use of it cross platform.

Hello,
I don't know if I understand your question correctly.
I did some tests by changing the "skia" settings and I am attaching the
results.
I understand that the problem is related to the "skia" setting that if
activated creates the problem of the background of the icons.
Before, all this did not happen.
But what is the importance of this skia approach?
Do I have to keep it activated or "forced" or in the future will it be possible
to stay with the standard settings if it was a bug?
Standard icons are best viewed as graphics when using l.o.

Does the icon background color resolve if you change from Skia/Vulkan to
Skia/Raster (software rendering) from the Tools -> Options -> View panel?

Also, please provide the skia.log details from your profile cache. And what
size in px screen are you working at?
