See the difference? I have the option for background gradient and provides for a much easier to view document....  It make a difference for us in the clerical field.

YUK. "General cleanup of the UI: 3D borders in rulers and status bars were removed, toolbars are borderless and have a subtle background gradient for improved look.... NOT IMPROVED! 

PLEASE, AT LEAST, GIVE US THE OPTION TO CHOOSE A GRADIENT. It is too white/bland. I like the option on Microsoft office for the option of using a shaded background gradient. WAY TOO WHITE.

I'm going to get UX involved with this one. I'll send them a message right now.

Also, please don't combine bugs as it makes it harder to get people involved (seems like this one deals with gradients and status bars/rulers). These are two separate issues, for now we'll leave them like this but UX team might ask you to separate these.

Thanks for reporting

not a bug as is ("not an improvement" is not an error description, but an opinion), and way to open for bikeshedding. Please get involved with the fine guys at http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Design-f1935996.html if you want to discuss the UX of LibreOffice. Thanks.
