Screenshot of Writer Spellchecker with KDE Neon Breeze Dark

With the Breeze Dark theme on KDE Neon, the spellchecker is hard to see.  The highlighting of any misspelt word is effective, but the surrounding text is very difficult to read.  

(As a feature request, it might also help of the cursor in the main window also moved to the misspelt word, although I can imagine that this is difficult to implement.)    

Thanks and regards

Thanks for the report.
Version 7.3 won't see further updates.
Can you please test again with 7.5.5 ? https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download-libreoffice/
Many improvements to dark mode have been made since 7.3.

We try to stick to one issue per report, but I think this is already covered by bug 57011.
