Comment 3 ToanTran 2023-11-15 16:22:53 UTC

I encountered a similar issue on my MacOS with the following problems:

1. Switching to Dark mode results in all text remaining black on the black (lighter) background.

2. Changing from Dark mode to Light mode causes all text to change to white on the white background.


The appearance setting on my MacOS is set to Light; perhaps there is a conflict?

Steve, Toan: does this also happen, if you deactivate Skia from LibreOffice - Preferences - LibreOffice - View - Use Skia for all rendering?
