--- Comment #3 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
I assume you do Insert > Image and Format > Arrange > To Background to make it
appear behind the editable cells (with access later via the Navigator). Whether
the document background is the automatic default or any user defined color does
not affect the transparency (or rather opacity), but the goal is to show the
background anyway.

I would prefer a different workflow with Format > Page Style and a background
image. This image is currently only shown in the preview but I could imagine to
have it also in edit mode - users who prefer the current behavior could use a
background color for cells. Either changing the page style or an option to not
print the background could be handy for printing.

Using Tools - LibreOffice - Application Colors - Document Background has the
disadvantage to be also effective in other modules like Writer.
