Description: When Open Libre Office after a recent update, the left most pane has a black background and only icons are visible and no text is readable until I hover my cursor over it. But when I open it in safe mode the pane goes back to normal, I also tried resetting my user profile to factory settings but nothing happened. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open Libre Office. Actual Results: Background colour and text colour of the left pan are black so nothing is readable until you hover over it Expected Results: Background colour and text colour of the left pane should be grey and black receptively Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Here is a link containing a few useful Screenshots: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/071gfleqkqm0lym/AAAR6T0__3L2fEtd_wfSzrhQa?dl=0

Please test disabling Skia in Menu/Tool/Options/LibreOffice/View
(In reply to m.a.riosv from comment #2) > Please test disabling Skia in Menu/Tool/Options/LibreOffice/View It worked, Thank you soo much for your help 😊
Please can you copy here the information in Menu/Help/About LibreOffice, so someone with similar characteristics can test the issue. And if it is reproducible, then there is a bug about the use of Skia.

Yes I did disable Skia as it was instructed by you earlier and it also lead to solving of my problem. And I looked for the option that you asked for but there is no direct checkbox to enable high contrast appearance but there is a checkbox for 'Automatically Detect High-Contrast mode of Operating System' which is ticked already. Here is a Screenshot for your reference: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xhe95l329o3tg3r/LibreOffice%20my%20Accesibility%20Settings%20Screenshot.png?dl=0
Would be nice to hear, if you can enable Skia/Vulkan in 7.1.5 or newer. We have a functionality that prevents "bad" graphics drivers from using Vulkan, but we have to manually add the drivers to the exclusion list. If you can use Vulkan with 7.1.5+ and the problem still appears, you could attach the skia.log into this report as advised in https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FirstSteps#Graphics-related_issues_.28Skia.29 If the issue is gone, locate %APPDATA%\libreoffice\4\user\cache\skia.log and attach it to the bug report.

Yes now even after enabling skia the issue is not present, thank you :) Here is a link to your asked for file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/3rn6w7o61aiispl/skia.log/file
Great, then there is no need to exclude your graphics driver as Skia/Vulkan works :)
