            Bug ID: 142679
           Summary: When entering data, can the cell background be
                    transparent so you can see the image underneath?
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mapurves at hotmail.com

Description:
I can change the cell background that appears when I'm entering data by
setting:

Tools - LibreOffice - Application Colors - Document Background - Green

We don't want the cell color to be green or any other solid color, we want to
see the image under the cell while we type. For this example, I set the
Document Background to Green. In the case shown, we can't tell what the value
on the image is until we finish entering the data. If we make a mistake, we
have to go back and correct the value. If we could see the image as we type, we
would be less likely to make an error.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a background image of tabular data
2. Start entering the data in a cell.

Actual Results:
The cell turns a solid color, obscuring the image underneath

Expected Results:
Requested results: the image remains visible in the cell as you type


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
