startup page (text too white)

Hello,

Libreoffice, at least the kde4 integrated interface, uses wrong colors for some dialogs, menu and startup page. I'll attach the screnshots.

Generally, the problem is that it uses "view text" color on a panel that uses "window background" color. The correct color would be "Window Text". "View Text" is to be used in conjunction with "View Background", as in any input component.

Also, the disabled menu items should use a lighter color, as kde menu does. I don't know which color they choose.

I'm using OpenSuSE 12.3 with KDE OpenSuSE Dark Theme.

I think after this report was submitted, the behavior was changed. Now nothing is dark in LibO with a dark theme in openSUSE 13.2. Setting to WFM.
