As opposed to Apache OpenOffice, LibreOffice allows to set a background color to text not only in Writer, but also in Impress. This is a very helpful feature. Unfortunately, the background color only shows in editing mode, but not in presentation mode.

Hello Holger, *, I can confimr it with OS: Debian Testing x86
Sorry, for some reason my FF loaded my last comment too fast for what ever reason ... :( Additional info: LO: Version: 5.2.0.4 Build-ID: 1:5.2.0-2 CPU-Threads: 2; BS-Version: Linux 4.6; UI-Render: Standard; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8) Thorsten B. has confirmed this bug on FrOSCon as well ... ;) HTH and sorry for the inconvenience Thomas.
Hello Holger, *, further investigations reveal that I can also confirm it with OS: Debian Testing AMD64 LO: back to Version: 5.0.0.0.beta3 Build-ID: 96345c15d8ab19c49014f055fe41ba8e1f421e5c Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8) (my oldest version on my laptop, parallel installed, following the instructions from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/Linux. As this feature was introduced with this version, I will change the version info of this bug adequately ... ;) ). For other QA members to reproduce: 1. Start Impress 2. Insert any character or a word 3. Mark the character or (a port of) the word 3. Click on the down arrow right to "Highlight Color" in the Sidebar and choose a colour 4. Press <End> to confirm that your character / word got the background colour you selected 5 Press <F5> to start the presentation You will then see that your selected background colour is not shown in the presentation ... :( HTH Thomas.
