Created attachment 183033 [details] rulers shown for writer version 6.4.7.2 and writer version 7.4.1.2 It works properly in Writer version 6.4.7.2 but not for writer version 7.4.1.2, and makes it difficult to properly set tabs visually by dragging the tab marks on the ruler.
Apparently the tick marks are there, but they're white. What OS are you using? Are you using a dark theme in your OS?
Linux KDE Neon (Ubuntu based with KDE Plasma version 5.26.0) No, I'm not using a dark theme. It works fine with Writer 6.4.7.2, but not with Writer 7.4.1.2.
Indeed they are not being drawn with the right color. I'm setting this to NEW. Code pointer: https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/svtools/source/control/ruler.cxx?r=3901e029#418
