Created attachment 195486 [details] Screenshot of an initialy white table after reopening it Since several years now, tables in my installation of impress, independent of whether they are newly created or included in older presentations, change from whatever style i choose/chose, to an ugly blueish color, when I reopen it. It seems that there were some questions about that round 2014-2015, but they just were closed without an answer. As I am a teacher at our university, I am working with presentations very often. My workaround just now is: I make a screenshot of the correct table and cover the table with it; whenever I need to edit the table, I do that and repeat the process. But this is starting to become a dealbreaker, as this problem does not seem to go away, however much updates I install… what do I miss?
Please attach a sample file, reduce the size as much as possible without private information, and paste the information in Menu/Help/About LibreOffice, there is a copy icon.
Created attachment 197409 [details] A lecture about CNS-pharmacology; you can see the problem in slides 52 and 60. No problem in slide 88 (pasted table from Calc) Hope that helps... one of my lectures i need to rework with a workaround: paste in a table from calc. Another workaround is to have a screenshot of the table above. Where are the standard colors defined? Maybe changing that on my computer solves the problem... Thanks! //M
There is a background color for those tables (52-60), change it to 'None' or to whatever background you like. On the sidebar 'Properties' also you can select the table design liked.

From your comment I assume that you did not see the earlier comments? Yes, that helps for the moment, but when saved and reopened, the blue color is back and most of the table designs have blue background as well. But I found a workaround: when I make the table i Calc and paste it in, it stays as it should be. Works for me, so if it is difficult to find the problem or if i am the only one having it, then you can just leave it be.

Selecting the cells in slide 52 and setting to None in properties, saving and reloading, the blue color is *not* back in my case. Which version you are using?

I thought about it a little: the error only occurs on my Windows-computer at work, not on the two linux-machines, it has persisted despite several updates and followed independent of the LO-version. My conclusion: it is a (hidden) configuration. I first tried to just uninstall LO and then reinstall it, without success. Than I uninstalled it, purged all and every trace smelling like LO from the computer (and there was some in different directories). Then I restarted Windows. After that I reinstalled v 24.8.2.1. The result: I can make a table that is not getting blue as default, i can save it and reopen the file and the table still has the style it had before i saved and closed it. I will try some presentation where i know there are blue tables under screenshots, but that will take some time. As of now, it seems that in some strange way the system or i, unknowingly, made a configuration that coloured the tables blue and with deleting all userdata this configuration was purged too. I will report if something comes up that disproves this theory, but as of now it may be a bug that this configuration came up in the first place, but not a bug that kept it in place. So if it is okay: I have changed the status to RESOLVED and NOTABUG; you may change this if you it was wrong. Thank you for your patience.
Ok, for profile issues we usually use worksforme.
