Hi Tim,

I have tried every possible way I can think of to recreate your issue,
but I cannot make it happen.
Running 6.4.7.2 on Mint 20.1, when simply clicking (not necessarily
selecting) inside a cell and choosing any color from the "Table Cell
Background Color" dialog the cell background is unquestionably filled
with that color. I get the same result if a range of cells are selected.
See:

(45k)

I get the same result with a parallel 6.4.7.2 install on a Windows box.

Is it possible you might be opening the border color dialog by mistake?

If you feel your issue is a glitch in your local LO configuration, how
about temporarily renaming your LO profile to check?

Sorry I can't offer anything more constructive.

Regards
Dave
