--- Comment #6 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
I prefer not to have a Blue based automatic page break. Adjustment to color of
the solid lines is a good start.

So rather than COL_LIGHTGRAY (#c0c0c0) for the grids and COL_GRAY (#808080) for
the page break, lightening the calc grid to #cccccc  (standard.soc GRAY 3) and
the page break to the darker #666666 (standard.soc GRAY 7) makes the UI more
readable.

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/19706/ accomplishes just that. Half of Jay's
proposal 1a.

But, I do have some concern over adding single RGB hex values to colorcfg.cxx
for specific color needs piecemeal across the UI. 

Rather than assigning them in per attribute in colorcfg.cxx seems we should
define additional named colors in the
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/include/tools/color.hxx header file. 
And then assign those.

At least a COL_GRAY3 and a COL_GRAY7, but perhaps define the names for a full
set from the standard .soc?

That would probably be the better way to do this and similar color tweaks in
the future.

The work to convert the page breaks from solid lines to dashed lines could then
be done as a new EasyHack?
