Hi all,

There is a very simple solution to this bugg that I hope can be implemented for
Microsoft Windows Users. 

It also helps with usability for those that are visually impaired / colour
blind by providing good contrast between the tab items and menu background.

By default there in LibreOfficeis there isno Personalization themes active.
Hence there is no difference between the colour of the menu tabs and the
background colour behind them. This can be seen in the original screenshot. 

However if a different Personalization colour is selected like Light Grey or
Green etc there is a good contrast that makes the application easier to use in
the   Notebookbar. This improved usability and could be a medical improvement
for users that struggle to differentiate similar colours.

By changing the default colour to one of the personalization colours usability
and menu consistency is improved.

I am attaching a screenshot(LibreOffice_Bug_122361_Possible_Solution.png)to
this comment to illustrate this point and how the change would look by default.
This is a simple fix that improves usability and makes the interface look more
consistent and professional. It is my opinion that changing to the light grey
colour is an improvement for the reasons stated and would be a simple fix to
implement.I understand that the severity was rated as 'trivial' but I believe
this is an incorrect judgement due to Microsoft users being by far the biggest
users of LibreOffice and that this simple change will improve consistency,
usability and productivity. 

Kind regards and many thanks
