            Bug ID: 128258
           Summary: Calc feature request: more prominent visual hint for
                    hidden rows or columns
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: chameleonscales at protonmail.com

Description:
Currently, the only way to tell if rows or columns are hidden is by seeing the
thicker separation in the headers.

When I work intensively, I often forget that I have hidden cells and this
visual hint is too subtle for me to notice it, which leads to me breaking my
data and realizing it a while later.
Moreover,if for whatever reason I decide to hide the headers themselves, now
there's no way to tell if cells are hidden.


Steps to Reproduce:
Right-clic on a row or column in a header and select "Hide Rows" (or Columns).

Actual Results:
A thicker line separates the rows between which the hidden one is contained.

Expected Results:
An efficient solution would be to have an option to display thicker borders
where hidden rows or columns are contained (this time on the sheet itself).
In addition to that, a color for that thicker line would make it even more
prominent and hard to miss. Of course, to ensure one could make this color
stand out in any colorized sheet, this color should be changeable in the
Preferences.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
