            Bug ID: 119498
           Summary: Highlighting white font on white background is
                    invisible
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.0 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: panther3002 at gmail.com

I'm using this version:

Version: 6.1.0.3
Build ID: efb621ed25068d70781dc026f7e9c5187a4decd1
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 4.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk2; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); Calc: CL

Sometimes it is useful to "hide" text in the document by making it white font
on a white background. However, when using the mouse to highlight (ie: select)
the text, it is still invisible. This should not be. In Microsoft Word, for
example, using Ctrl + A to select all text in a document causes the selection
"highlighting" to be dark if the font is light. Therefore, invisible text
becomes visible.

 Please add a feature like that in LibreOffice, to make text that is below a
certain threshold of darkness to be highlighted with a dark background in order
to make it visible when selecting it via the mouse or Ctrl + A or whatever.
