[Solved] Keep background color settings

Post by cindyowe »

I am doing bank reconciliations and I want to keep a specific background color until I decide to change it. The default is set to "no fill" but I want it to remember my last cell's settings. I know I can save a default color but that's not what I want. I just want it to stay on current settings until I change it. Any help?

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Either use styles for your cell, with a background color, or use LibreOffice.
It is not possible yet with OpenOffice.

Please add [Solved] at the beginning of the title in your first post (top of the topic) with the *EDIT button if your issue has been fixed.
LibreOffice 25.2 on Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE 7 Gigi) and 25.2 portable on Windows 11.

of course it is, because LO is in practise the succsessor of OOo, and AOO has literally »no Development« …
