Subject: [libreoffice-users] Table cell background and text highlighting
version 6.4.7.2 on ubuntu linux
I am unable to change the background color of a table cell, once an
initial color is selected.
I suspect that this may be solved by modifying text highlighting.
However I am unable to find any way to turn on or off text highlighting.
No icon appears to be present that would control such a process. I have
looked through all of the drop down menus and so far, have not found the
appropriate control.
Any help would be most welcome.
thanks
Hi Tim,
I have tried every possible way I can think of to recreate your issue,
but I cannot make it happen.
Running 6.4.7.2 on Mint 20.1, when simply clicking (not necessarily
selecting) inside a cell and choosing any color from the "Table Cell
Background Color" dialog the cell background is unquestionably filled
with that color. I get the same result if a range of cells are selected.
See:

(45k)
I get the same result with a parallel 6.4.7.2 install on a Windows box.
Is it possible you might be opening the border color dialog by mistake?
Hi Dave:
As I suggested to another responder, I believe that I might have done
something to set up text highlighting, because if I attempt to change
the background color, that change does show up on the perimeter of the
cell, next to - but not including the border.
I have added a highlight icon to the text object toolbar, but it is
inactive.
As for renaming (presumably temporarily disabling?) my profile, would
that be to rename the entire path at ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/ ?
thanks so much
