[Solved] Dialog boxes hard to read on MacOS «Q47»
[Solved] Dialog boxes hard to read on MacOS «Q47»
When I exit a page, my options to save or discard or whatever are subdued by a dark blue "fill". I can't see the text. How do I remove or change the fill in the boxes that say "save" or "discard" or "?".

Try a different operating system theme.

Re: Dialog boxes
Hi, and welcome to the forum. I will guess you are using MacOS. Fix your forum signature in User Control Panel → Profile → Edit Signature so it shows your operating system and the version of OpenOffice you are using.
If this solved your problem please go to your first post use the Edit button and add [Solved] to the start of the title. You can select the green checkmark icon at the same time.

"User Control Panel" link at top left of OpenOffice Window.

Re: Dialog boxes
As I suggested - try a different theme for your Mac.

Re: Dialog boxes
Not sure what you mean by Theme? In the system Preferences under General I can chose Light or Dark. Doesn't make any difference.

Re: Dialog boxes
This is a setting on the Mac, controlling its overall appearance. Not using a Mac I cannot direct you further.

Re: Dialog boxes
Had no impact. I just want to change the dark blue boxes that seem to be a default controlled/set by AOO. Is there an AOO preference that changes this?

Re: Dialog boxes
MrProgrammer’s post above contains a suggestion to look at a solution in the Mac FAQ.
