Guys,
I'm having a problem with openoffice calc. When I highlight a few cells or few rows and then change the background color, no color is shown on the monitor for the cells. Moving the input box up/down across the rows or cells that the background color was set on, the color indication in the toolbar correctly changes showing where the color has been set, but still no background color is displayed in the cells on-screen.
Oddly, when I print the spreadsheet, the background color is correctly printed?? Can some one confirm this on your install or let me know "works for me" so I can have some additional info before filing a bug report. Thanks.

Please don't top-post. Anyhow, to the OP, are you using a dark theme of some sort? Openoffice has problems with not showing the correct colours if you're using some sort of non-default (Gnome) theme.
