Created attachment 94959 [details] Screen shot showing the problem Since Libre Office 4.1.5.3 I found the background of the notes in cells get transparent and this makes very difficult to read such notes. Please see the attached file - a screen shot showing the problem
Please provide an actual document that we can open and steps on how to reproduce. Marking as NEEDINFO Once you provide an actual document + steps mark the bug as UNCONFIRMED and we'll try to reproduce.

Dear Joel, Please have attached here a smal XLS example. I used a very big file to take the picture already attached to my earlier post. Unfortunately I can not attach this file because of the data included there. So I have created a small excerpt from this file (pasted special without the formulas). Strange enough if I opened this file and check the note it appeared OK. But any checks after it showed difficult to read note. So now I believe that from time to time it may be possible to show the note correctly but much more frequently it is showed as in my picture, attached to the bug report. With best regards,
Created attachment 95023 [details] A small XLS example file with a table plus a comment to show the problem In addition to my initial screen shot I am attaching a example XLS also.
In the future make sure to read the entire post ;) If I hadn't caught this we would have never looked at it again as it said "mark it as UNCONFIRMED" - QA typically doesn't look at NEEDINFO bugs. Thanks!
Interesting - I open the file and it looks awesome. Please test with 4.2.1 (or if you care to try 4.2.2.1 rc) to see if you still have the issue. Marking as WFM - if you still see the problem with 4.2 branch please mark as UNCONFIRMED and we'll continue to see what's going on. Thanks!
Unfortunately I checked this bug with Libre Office 4.2.2.1 and it is available! Testing now I found that if you hower the mouse on the cell with the comment for first time, the comment looks very well. But if you check the comment again it get difficult to read. Next all attempts to check the comment it is shown difficult to read. But if you close the Libre Office and start it again then open the demo file it will start the same story. The first check of the note will be OK and then any following check will be wrong. Because English is not my best language I made a small video recorded from my desktop. This video shows all what I am explaining here. Please see the attached file - Comments_difficult_to_read-example_20140309.mpeg

Not reproducible for me with LO 4.1.6 and LO 4.2.5.0.0+ under Linux / Ubuntu 14.04. Best regards. JBF
This is crazy - I can obviously see the problem in your video (thanks for that by the way) but I cannot reproduce. Tested with 4.2.4.2 release Please try resetting your profile: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile If that fails to work I'm going to try to get a developer involved to triage the problem. Thanks for your patience
Marking as NEEDINFO - we need confirmation that with a fresh profile running 4.3. If you can still reproduce set to UNCONFIRMED. Thanks
Today I have downloaded LibreOffice 4.2.7 and also LibreOffice 4.3.3 for 64bit rpm Linux I have de installed former versions of the software. Then I have deleted the /home/user/.config/libreoffice folder in my openSUSE 13.1 KDE4 Desktop. Then I have installed LibreOffice 4.2.7 and also LibreOffice 4.3.3. Then I tested the problem fist in LibreOffice 4.2.7 and after it in LibreOffice 4.3.3. Unfortunately Calc behaves as reported earlier - by the first hover of the mouse shows correctly the notes but by second or more hover shows the note difficult to read. All above was done without any adjustments and without installing any plugins in LibreOffice.
The problem doesn't appear for me either.

Moving this back to UNCONFIRMED - let's try to get someone to test with KDE
