Description FKon 2023-02-13 09:55:36 UTC 
Description:
When i switch on dark mode, any form elements I have in the page, text, drop-down list or date, do not print. They are invisible. When I switch dark mode off, they appear again. Windows 11 and the problem started since 7.4.3 and continues on 7.5.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create drop-down list
2.Go to Tools -Settings-Enable experimental features
3.Try to print the document

Actual Results:
Form fields are invisible when the document prints. Every other character is printing normally

Expected Results:
Form fields supposed to print  


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Sounds like bug 148614.
Could you please check the steps there and confirm that it is the same issue you are seeing on Windows?
Comment 2 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-03-03 15:30:04 UTC 
I can reproduce on Windows 10 and Ubuntu 20.04, with version 7.4.5. However, I can see it fixed in 7.5.1.

Can you please test that new version and report back? https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download-libreoffice/

Thank you!

FKon opened another bug and commented the following, so I am setting back to "unconfirmed".

FKon, can you please attach an example document for us to test the issue?

As FKon is talking about dropdowns, and the example file from bug 148614 gives exactly the same results now on Windows and Linux, I am marking this as a duplicate. Thank you!
