Re: [libreoffice-users] Table cell background and text highlighting

Hi Tim,

Have you tried to select the cell by itself before trying to change its
color? Changing the color of one cell is sometimes a bit tricky.
First, position your cursor in the cell and do Table > Select > Cell,
followed by Table > Properties > Background. From there you should be
able to select the color.

Note that I am using LO 7.2 on Fedora downloaded  from the LO site. I
seem to remember some past issues with table formatting in previous
versions but I am not sure if it dealt with text or table formatting.

I hope this helps.
Rémy.
