3. try to fill with color
4. see the unexpected result

Actual Results:
no color

Expected Results:
colored background of cells


Reproducible: Always

Thx anyway for your work!

Works for me in Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: ef6083200a4f28e43198c7a0878da6f4b880725f
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

For the test, could you rename your LibreOffice directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile)  or run LibreOffice in safe mode (https://help.libreoffice.org/7.2/en-US/text/shared/01/profile_safe_mode.html) and give it a new try? Thank you
