No contrast on a formlar when the controls become active

Hello There,
There is no contrast when a Listbox or a Checkbox become active on a form. This make the use of the form very difficult, because we have almost no way to know where we are.
OpenOffice modifies the background color when we "enter" on a control, and it is perfectly visible this way.
Could / would you do something about that ?
Best regards,
Thierry

Thank you bringing this to our attention and attaching a sample document. I can reproduce the issue in NeoOffice 3.0, and as you stated, the contrast is much easier to see in OpenOffice.org 3.0.1, as well as NeoOffice 2.2.5.

I have opened Bug 3436 to track this issue. Please add yourself to the CC: list in the bug if you would like to track its progress.

I think that I have fixed this bug and I have posted links to a test patch in my last post in bug 3436.

Can you install the test patch and tell us if the bug is fixed for you?

Greate Patrick,

It works fine now, good job. I have also noticed that NeoOffice solve a problem present with OpenOffice's TextBoxes with format : The accented characters didn't appear, while they do in NeoOffice. I will stick to Neo this time !
