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.
Ng, I bet you are 100% correct! Brilliant. http://www.3111skyline.com/download/screenshots/archlinux/my-kde-dark- theme-800.jpg My theme is based on Obsidian Coast. Switching back to the default theme cures the problem. You would think Sun could accommodate something as simple as themed color schemes. http://www.3111skyline.com/download/screenshots/archlinux/oo-row-color-ok- light-theme.jpg Thanks Ng -- mystery solved. Arch folks, that nasty little intel graphics problem isn't also the result of a dark theme is it ?:) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
