Description:
in version of debian sid: 6.4.1~rc1-2
with KDE5 dark mode, dark icons are ok - but system colors are used for document display to.
There is no switch to white document background to design documents like printed. Colored layouts are very difficult to design. 
All components are effected: calc, writer, impress

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a document
2.
3.

Actual Results:
document appears in dark background. Color-formated cells in calc are ignored.

Expected Results:

Reproducible: Always

No problem here.

Went into KDE system settings "Colors" (NOT Themes) and changed to Breeze Dark.

Thank you for reporting the bug.
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.

OTOH, do you reproduce it if you launch LibreOffice from commandline with 'SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen' ?

I installed version 6.4.4 and dark mode is working fine for me.

So thank you very much for dealing with it.
