Border color of active, focused cell is hard to see. Especially it is hard when cells have border color. It was good in ubuntu 18.04

Hi Fazliddin
Thanks for the report.

Could you please:
- Copy and paste the "Help > About" information in your affected version
- Include a screenshot of the issue as an attachment here
- Give us the version of LibreOffice used in Ubuntu 18.04, if you have it.

I assume this is because of the fix for Bug 142121, now using the system colour for the selection/cursor.

For me, on Ubuntu 20.04 with LO 7.3.2.2, the cursor is very evident with the default orange colour in dark mode.

Here are some related bugs:
- About improving the contrast, but macOS-specific: Bug 145080
- About making the border more obvious and placed more optimally, with a (partial?) fix in the 7.4 branch: Bug 143733

Added meta bug, see also bugs, and used more precise summary.

Since LO 7.3 the cell focus rectangle uses system highlight color. And in LO 7.4 the cell rectangle is a thicker and more visible.

See attached image for more info.

I'm closing this as WFM.
