Description: Can't seem to apply color to the cells. There's nothing in "Format", and I couldn't see anything on the toolbar or pulldown menus. Plus -- Why the hell did you put the stuff about resetting user profile at the END of all this?

Actual Results: There's no way I could see to add color background to a cell. Expected Results: Geez Louise...

They also contained text inside that suddenly changed orientation for no apparent reason. I minored in CSci during my doctorate, and have spent thousands of hours writing code. They taught me to make things user-friendly, not to bury common functions 4 layers deep. Plus, I donate money to Libre Office. So, don't tell me this is completely "free". Time is money, too. However, I do have great respect for the project. So, how about we shake hands and get on with it. I recognize that you guys are doing very important work.
