Now I am back to the same problem that irked me before; namely, either to get Open Office running, or to get Libre Office running and to change the color scheme of the GUI interface to something that doesn't cause me severe pain and discomfort (from looking at large patches white screen). I am wondering if I ought to try css, as I believe I still have E. Liddell's scripts somewhere (and his old emails with the attachments). Maybe I can use that to get my Libre Office GUI interface to use colors that are not so hard on my eyes. (I am not joking here. I get watery eyes, and eventually a migraine, after staring at a white screen for more than about 5 minutes.)
Hi Bill,
Either find and install any dark GTK theme or use LO's manual color scheme selector.

There's plenty more search results.

even simpler one: tools > options > libreoffice > accessibility uncheck "automatically detect high-contrast mode of operating system"
after that, LO will actually use the colours you chose... and even your icon set (when that option is checked it will revert to high-contrast no matter what.)"
