On my PC (Linux, Gnome) it depends on the desktop enviroment's appearence. Try to change it.
Will do. I keep you posted. Btw I'm with Xfce.

So as shown on the to pictures I re-installed the 7.5.5 version of Calc on the same machine, the same session, the same user. Obviously both of them cannot be launched at the same time but successsively. Here is the proof that the DM settings or session settings ou OS have no influence in the colour. I think there sould be a default colour in Libo itself, that noone seems to be know about.

I confirm with the gen VCL plugin: Version: 7.6.1.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: c7cda394c5de06de37d8109c310df89a4d4c3a98 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: x11 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded The mix of blue and maroon looks quite odd. The change is due to the fix for bug 145080: commit 258686a58f909ab04c7281c05f15882eb400748e author Heiko Tietze Wed May 17 16:48:30 2023 +0200 committer Heiko Tietze Tue May 23 09:44:21 2023 +0200 Resolves tdf#145080 - Use accent color for focused cell Reviewed-on: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/151887 Heiko, wasn't that supposed to only affect macOS?
Effort was done for bug 145080 and bug 142121. The selection does not use a hard-coded color anymore but what is defined as accent color on the system. For Windows see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-colors-in-windows-d26ef4d6-819a-581c-1581-493cfcc005fe
Created attachment 189299 [details] 7.5 (top) vs 7.6 (bottom) Acknowledged, but: - the commit in question was directed a fixing a macOS issue - the maroon colour does not match a system colour in my case (Ubuntu + GNOME), not sure where it comes from - the result is a mix of maroon _and_ dark blue (drag corner, active cell and column header borders), whereas it was at least consistent before (only dark blue), see screenshot. I understand and agree with using a non-modifiable accent colour coming from the system (which correctly makes the current request in summary a NAB or WF), but don't you agree that the UI got worse with that commit for x11?
KDE does per System Settings > Appearance > Color, and it seems to be the same for Ubuntu looking at https://www.debugpoint.com/ubuntu-accent-colour/ I've never seen these blue border lines. Is it a gtk-only thing?

Is it a gtk-only thing? Maroon colour is: RGB: 127 0 0 HEX: #7f0000 Blue colour is: RGB: 0 0 127 HEX: #00007f Which I think match our COL_RED and COL_BLUE respectively. I see your commit added: maAccentColor = COL_RED; Could that be related? To be clear: screenshot is what I see with the gen VCL plugin, so I don't think the fact that I use Ubuntu/GNOME matters here. Right?

Created attachment 189361 [details] VCL=gen on Ubuntu The generic VCL uses blue as accent color with Ubuntu from the ISO (but maroon on my KDE desktop; and I still don't see mixed colors).
On Fedora Xfce there is no way to set the appearance. So the default colour should be defined somewhere, or is it random ? I doubt. So where could it be? I never found how Oliver reaches this menu.
(In reply to nouvo09 from comment #16) > On Fedora Xfce there is no way to set the appearance. Happy to provide help for every desktop environment, but searching the web is faster https://fostips.com/accent-color-fedora-37-gnome-43/. Point is that we went from one hard-coded value to a color which is defined by the OS/DE. In the long run I'd be happy to have means to overwrite the use of system colors, and use a pink background on dark system colors, for example. But for now this is not possible.
Let's set to "won't fix" instead given that the request is to change the colour. I've opened bug 157235 to follow-up without requesting the ability to customise.

Are you aware that Xdce and Gnome are not the same thing? search the web you'll see > Point is that we went from one hard-coded value Seems that we still are there at least on Xfce.
