    ^ Same bug noticed in 3 PCs.
    7.4.0.3 installed as "clean install" and "over the top install". Same results.

    Even with the use of "user" folder backup from v7.3: no results.
    "user" folder path: C:\User\AppData\Roaming|LibreOffice\4\user

    Edit:

    Today I found some additional info here =

    ^^^ Confirmed, its a bug.

    Hello @anon and @stapp

    Although eventually, I will receive the correct (M1) LibreOffice update via Homebrew, for my MacBook Pro Apple Silicon M1, initially the official LibreOffice download page misdetects I should have the macOS (Intel) version instead. This began about three or four months ago.

    A minor annoyance at worst. I'll need to notify them soon.

    Edit: This is highly likely to be attributed to a known inaccurate macOS-based User-Agent response from newer Macs.

    7.5.3 has introduced the black mode, it looks terrible. LO takes the theme from OS and it can not be disabled. They say that fix is coming, I sure hope so, I would switch to another office just for this reason alone. :gack:

    I agree. In places the interface is barely readable. If you do Help..About.. there is some dark blue writing on the black background that I cannot read at all.

    I really hope they fix this. It's really not even legible. For the time being, I have to use an alternative.
