Can you attach some screenshot? And please write here info from Help->About dialog
(In reply to Roman Kuznetsov from comment #2) > Can you attach some screenshot? Your screenshot is good enough. Sheets 1 to 3 are selected but their tabs all look the same. So you do not know which of these sheets is active (visible). In earlier versions, the name of the visible sheet was bold (as you can see here: https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-US/text/scalc/guide/multi_tables.html?DbPAR=CALC#bm_id3150769 ). > And please write here info from Help->About dialog I did.

This has stated the problem, and mentioned how it was different before (see comment 3), but has no suggestion how to fix. Namely, do you suggest to restore writing current tab name in bold? https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/fad98c8641342a77241124dd98e0cb781daef4ad has explicitly changed that: > tdf#124572 TabBar new look, protected icon, width and height > > This is the first try of a new TabBar look - borders have been > removed, *selected tab doesn't change the font to bold*, adjustment > to the selected tab line. as a side note, it didn't remove the old comment stating this: > // actual page is drawn using a bold font If the UX decision is to restore the bold behavior, then the code pointer is reverting the related bits in the mentioned commit. Otherwise, it depends on the wanted solution.

We discussed the topic in the design meeting and recommend to make the draw the caption of the active tab in bold, again. Sascha was also pondering over a border but I don't get it. Border as in frame around the whole tab?

(In reply to Justin L from comment #14) Please do not. Please close this one as fixed, and suggest interested users to file a follow-up (if needed) to track border. Otherwise, it fails "one problem per one issue" principle, and referring to this bug # would not tell exactly which specific change is meant.
