(In reply to Stéphane Guillou (stragu) from comment #0) > In Calc, the active cell cursor has a small transparent squares at 3 corners. FWIW, I can see the same on MS Windows with LO 24.8 alpha daily built 2024-04-23, but I wonder... So what? Is there any negative consequence of having these 3 transparent corners?
(In reply to ady from comment #2) > So what? Is there any negative consequence of > having these 3 transparent corners? Sure, severity is pretty minor (changed it now), but it is a noticeable change that will seem buggy and unpolished to more users than just me, I am sure.
Noel Grandin committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/1f86fdd4b5428a8c7b253051cca93429dc71f894 tdf#160787 Calc active cell cursor has small transparent corners It will be available in 24.8.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
Considering that this tdf#160787 is a minor issue whereas one negative consequence of the patch in comment 4 is tdf#160946 (which is a much more important issue in terms of UX), I would like to kindly ask to attempt to find a solution to tdf#160946, or to revert the patch linked-to in comment 4 and find some alternative solution. TIA.
