[libreoffice-users] Calc - Can't highlight a column and set background shading

Been using Open Office and then LibreOffice since 1993.  Used to use 
Bugzilla occasionally in the past.
. . . This is my first post to this mailing list, to seek support from 
the community.

I have a spreadsheet I've been using for 3 years.  I modify it occasionally.

I have previously selected a column and clicked the "background 
highlight" icon with color of yellow selected - that would turn the 
entire column yellow - it no longer works!

I suspect I "thrashed around" and changed something about the Toolbars 
that has caused this problem.

I just uninstalled and re-installed Libre Office on my Windows 7 
Professional desktop computer - LibreOffice 7.5.4.2.  I did this to get 
away from any "unintended" changes I may have made.  It did not fix any 
of the problems noted in the next paragraph.

I also seem to have changed how the toolbars display:  They have the 
"system blue" background color, the icons seem larger or different, and 
the "background highlight" tool seems to be different - has black "ab" 
over yellow line.  See attached screen shot.
*_. . . I can no longer highlight a cell or column of cells and change 
the background to yellow._**_

Urgency:  I am "dead in the water" on my number one priority task.

Best wishes,
