            Bug ID: 131978
           Summary: With dark color theme spell checking dialog is
                    unreadable
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ville.aakko at gmail.com

Description:
With a dark theme, spell check dialog is unreadable.

Similar issue was present in the formula editor in bug 90297, but was fixed
previously. I'm mentioning it here since I think there is a more in-depth core
issue here; parts defining default colors do not have a consistent background
color in every place of the UI. I.e. in Options -> Libreoffice -> Colors: a
default color for the text can be chosen. If left at automatic, this will be
black, since it makes sense since the document (paper) background is most often
white. However, this does *not* need to be same as the background of the UI. In
the case of dark themes it is not. 

Still, this same color is being applied to the UI, at least in the spell
checker. There may be other places where this is applied, too.

If I change this color from automatic to something else, the spell checking
dialog can be readable, but this will also change the default (unformatted)
color of the document text.

Suggestion: it should be made sure (and the dialog changed appropriately) this
option is only used for document. UI color options should be separate and
clearly marked as such.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose a dark theme
2. Leave default document "text color" and "background" as is
3. open spell checking dialog

Actual Results:
Spell checking dialog background is dark (as expected), but document default
color is used here for the text, which makes it unreadable.

Expected Results:
The dialog should be readable.

Document colors should be separate from document colors. LibreOffice should
notice a dark theme and apply it's colors in all places of the UI, and/or have
clear way to set these separately in the Options.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
