Description fa.libreoffice 2024-11-22 20:22:06 UTC

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit style Default (or any custom style) > Font Effects > Font colour: blue (or any colour), transparency 80 % (any %).
2. Klick ok. The blue font is correctly shown as [80 %] transparent.
3. Save and close document.
4. Reopen same document. The transparency is now lost.

Actual Results:
Font transparency is lost after reopening a saved calc doc.

Expected Results:

Hello, I was not able to reproduce the issue you described. I am using the same version. I had text set to color blue and transparency 70%. I closed out and reopened the document to find nothing had changed.

Sample calc file that always reproduces non permanent font transparency.

Interesting and strange, that so far only two users can always reproduce. Apparently not everyone. So, I'm at a loss what else it could be.

Just in case, I added the calc file I used including a description. Your steps to not reproduce, Henry G., seem to be identical, though. But thanks for testing.

In version 7.3.7 when transparency is applied, you can not see the result on pressing OK, neither after File-Reload.
