Description Immanuel H 2020-12-09 07:59:56 UTC
Description:
I work for many years with LO Writer on Linux systems, currently Ubuntu. A persistent problem is that text which I have highlighted with light green is highlighted with the standard yellow when I reopen the document. In other words, the green highlighting is lost/overridden by yellow, the standard selection.

Actual Results:
Highlight written text with light green, close the document, reopen it again

Expected Results:
Highlighted text should still be light green, but it is not. It is highlighted yellow instead (standard color)


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Keep the light green highlighting
