Created attachment 193948 [details] Screen shot of release notes message and button After upgrading to 24.2, the Release Notes button is black on dark blue when active if macOS's "increase contrast" setting is on. Steps: 1. Apple Menu, then System Settings 2. Click Accessibility, then Display 3. Set increase contrast to On 4. Launch an version of LibreOffice older than 24.2 5. In the Help Menu, choose Check for Updates 6. Download the latest version of LibreOffice 24.2 7. Close LibreOffice 8. Install the download 9. Launch LibreOffice 10. Open an existing spreadsheet 11. Click the button Release notes 12. Cmd-tab to return to LibreOffice Expected result: The Release notes button text has good contrast with the background Actual result (screenprint attached): The Release notes button text has poor contrast with the background, failing WCAG 2.0 and being barely readable
There is another issue I know of related to Increase Contrast: bug 154381. Can you please share your full version information copied from LibreOffice > About? Which version did you upgrade from when you noticed the issue?
Current version info: Version: 24.2.3.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 433d9c2ded56988e8a90e6b2e771ee4e6a5ab2ba CPU threads: 6; OS: macOS 14.5; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded I don't know how to tell for sure what version I previously had. It's not in my downloads, and a search on current and past install.log files only turns up Adobe Acrobat on a search for the string "Libre". However, I believe it would have been one of the 23's and not 24.0 or 24.1.

Chas Belov, waiting for feedback from comment 3.
Sorry about overlooking this. - I am not getting the dialog asking I want to review the release notes, presumably because I am no longer launching LibreOffice 26.2.4 for the first time. I actually just upgraded to 26.2.4.2 and that upgrade was not enough to trigger the dialog. Is there a file I can either touch or delete to make the dialog recur? - The preference pane you refer to has the preference "Use Skia for all rendering" checked but grayed out; LibreOffice does not allow me to un-check it. Additionally, "Force Skia software rendering" is already unchecked. Checking it does not make "Use Skia for all rendering" toggleable. Is there some other preference I need to set to allow me to toggle "Use Skia for all rendering"?

Is there > some other preference I need to set to allow me to toggle "Use Skia for all > rendering"? Since my comment in 2024, Skia became mandatory on macOS. Now the difference is between the hardware accelerated (Metal) and software rendering (raster). I'm not sure how we could force the info bar to appear.
