CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3

This issue was also present in the previous versions of Libreoffice and in the version 7.1.0 as well. This issue was not there in the Libreoffice version which was preinstalled in the ubuntu 20.04.01 LTS, I am not sure but it was 6.2.4 or 6.4.2.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Just open any document in libreoffice and set the background color of the document to black (page color of the document).
2. White line appear and dissapear as we type and do the work.

Actual Results:
White stray lines of different width appeared and dissappeared as I continued to work with document. 

Expected Results:
There shouldn't be any such stray lines appearing and dissappearing as it causes distractions and it makes the editing and document process hard 


Reproducible: Always

Do you have maybe another device you could test this issue on? Did you check the grid options?

Hey Aleksandar Kondic,
This issue is not related to the grids option.
I was using Libreoffice version 7.0.0.1 as I was facing the issues with Libreffice version 7.0.4.2
today I updated Libreoffice to version :

Version: 7.1.1.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: fe0b08f4af1bacafe4c7ecc87ce55bb426164676
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-IN (en_IN); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

and this version is working fine.

I have reinstalled my ubuntu since I raised this issue and I reinstalled libreoffice version 7.0.0.1 and libreoffice version 7.0.4.2 but even I am not able to reproduce the issue now.
