Description daniels.lewis652 2018-01-13 17:11:29 UTC
Action buttons, such as Ok, Save, Cancel, etc. are nearly impossible to read on a Mac with OS 10.13.2 (High Sierra). The OS only offers two colors for buttons, blue (which by default is a dark blue) and graphite (also dark). The font in the LibreOffice buttons is black which is almost unreadable on a dark blue or dark graphite background.

Most other apps use a white font which is very readable on a dark blue or dark graphite background.

What is needed is an option in LibreOffice Preferences to change the button font color to white.

A poor work-around I'm using in the meantime is:
Go to Mac System Preferences, Accessibility, Display, and uncheck "Increase contrast". This changes the dark blue buttons to lighter blue buttons. But it lowers the contrast on EVERYTHING. This is not a good solution.
