Code Pointer:

One approach is to check the fill style attribute item state in the border background set, pBBSet, after the page header or footer set is put. If the fill style attribute is not SET put the fill style item to none.

LO code that will be used in this approach
SfxItemSet
SfxItemSet::GetItemState
SfxItemState::SET
SfxTabPage::GetWhich
XATTR_FILLSTYLE
SfxItemSet::Put
XFillStyleItem
drawing::FillStyle_NONE

Comment 4 Justin L 2021-03-18 13:56:46 UTC
I'd say this is no big deal. The highlight is NOT added UNLESS you go to the area tab (which as stated introduces a default blue colour instead of showing the current value of NONE), and then OK the result. In other words, by not changing the blue colour, you are accepting its default of blue.

But yes, it is a bit unexpected to just browse through settings and then have the document change on you.
Comment 5 Justin L 2021-03-19 11:23:15 UTC
svx/source/xoutdev/xpool.cxx
    const Color aNullFillCol(COL_DEFAULT_SHAPE_FILLING); //light blue 2
    rPoolDefaults XATTR_FILLSTYLE = new XFillStyleItem(); //default SOLID


This can forced to NONE when the header is turned on with FN_INSERT_PAGEFOOTER
in sw/source/uibase/wrtsh/wrtsh1.cxx's SwWrtShell::ChangeHeaderOrFooter()
    if( bOn )
    {
       SvxULSpaceItem aUL(bHeader ? 0 : MM50, bHeader ? MM50 : 0, RES_UL_SPACE );
       SwFrameFormat* pFormat = bHeader ?
          const_cast<SwFrameFormat*>(rMaster.GetHeader().GetHeaderFormat()) :
          const_cast<SwFrameFormat*>(rMaster.GetFooter().GetFooterFormat());
       pFormat->SetFormatAttr( aUL );
+      XFillStyleItem aFill(css::drawing::FillStyle_NONE);
+      pFormat->SetFormatAttr(aFill);
    }
Comment 6 Justin L 2021-03-19 11:42:55 UTC
I think the fix I outlined is probably the best approach for this. So this could be a super-easy hack (where the work was all done for you - and you just need to go through the compile and submit stages).
Comment 7 Radhey Parekh 2021-04-01 16:15:50 UTC
I would like to fix this issue!
Comment 8 Buovjaga 2021-04-12 10:22:27 UTC
Looks like there are now two open patches, both failing to compile:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/113468
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/113564

I have to say I am a bit stunned that you decided to skip the compile step in Justin's advice "you just need to go through the compile and submit stages".
Comment 9 Radhey Parekh 2021-04-13 05:09:17 UTC
I had gone through the build stages and it worked pretty fine for me. I need to look into again as it isn't verified.

Not sure why the second one is 404, but here is a newer one from Advait: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/114022
Comment 11 Radhey Parekh 2021-04-29 08:15:26 UTC
Done! I had made some relevant changes in my older patch and its building perfectly now. Changing the status of the bug from asigned to fixed. Thanks.

The status remains intact until Justin is happy with either your work or Advait's

Comment 14 BogdanB 2021-06-04 18:39:57 UTC
I tested on this version and not yet solved. I see a difference: active is black, and not anymore blue, but the end result is the same.

That doesn't sound logical. What steps are you taking? Following the steps in comment 1, I get Area:None.

[Yes, if you switch from "none" to "color" then it says the "active" is black / "new" is blue, but that is irrelevant.]

Am I doing something wrong?

> Am I doing something wrong?
Yes - you are not stopping at step 4.

When you get to step four, the Area tab is NOT set to Color, but to none. Prior to the patch it was set to Color.
Comment 18 BogdanB 2021-06-08 07:59:05 UTC
Ok. I agree. I verified in Version: 7.1.3.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Community and in that version indeed is set on color, not on None. So, this bug is fixed in 7.2. Thanks for fixing this.
