            Bug ID: 140046
           Summary: Charts & Graphs in LibreOffice Calc display as only
                    black featureless rectangles when Windows uses a "dark
                    mode" color scheme
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: rthiedke at hotmail.com

Description:
When using a "Dark mode" or "high contrast" color scheme for Windows 7, All
Charts and Graphs in Calc display as nothing but a single black rectangle.  If
the black rectangle is selected and copy-pasted into, for example, MSPaint, it
displays as a normal, colorful graph just as originally intended.  So it's
creating the graph correctly in Calc, the graph is there, but not displaying it
as anything but a black featureless box.  Changing the graph's colors in Calc
has no effect, everything displays only as black.  Scanning the internet, I see
others are reporting this same issue.  Just downloaded most recent version of
LibreOffice, no change.  Calc displays graphs, charts fine if you select the
"Standard default" color scheme for Windows.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In any Calc spreadsheet, select any data set
2. Do Insert-Chart and create any Chart type
3. Voila, you have a big black rectangle in your spreadsheet  :)

Actual Results:
A big solid black rectangle is displayed where the chart should be

Expected Results:
A chart or Graph of the data would be displayed in the spreadsheet


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Copy-pasting the black rectangle into any other LibreOffice Application just
produces another black rectangle, but pasting it into any non-LibreOffice
Application, say MSPaint, displays the chart/graph just as it should look.
