Click "more" next to address blocks > New... 3. Text is black in dark grey Actual results: Poor contrast, looks out of place. Expected results: Should be white like default UI font in dark mode.

Ah, not GTK3-specific, reproducible with kf5: Version: 7.4.3.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 1048a8393ae2eeec98dff31b5c133c5f1d08b890 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded And not even linux-specific: Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: deb7bc82de19ea8e20c767fdf21f9ba4feb5e9f0 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-GB (en_GB); UI: en-GB Calc: threaded
