It seems that there must be a way to force Libre Office to use my TDE colors, or at least to use a dark theme or high-contrast mode. I tried qt5ct, and nothing happens. I thought maybe I could do it with css or something like that.
I've never used these (I know, how boring...)
To use Firefox themes:
LO > [Menu]-Tools > Options -- LibreOffice > Personalization
To do it all yourself:
LO > [Menu]-Tools > Options -- LibreOffice > Application Colors
The naming doesn’t seem very intuitive, so you’ll probably have to whack-a-mole a bunch...
HTH, Michael
Thanks, but that doesn't change the colors in the GUI. I mean the borders, the dialog pages, etc. My colors and fonts for actual documents (inside the application) are just fine. I want the GUI to use my TDE colors, or at least high-contrast, dark theme, light fonts on dark background.
You'll need to transfer your TDE color settings to GNOME theme. E.g. get started with /usr/share/themes/BlackMATE/gtk-3.0/gtk-main.css and modify it to your needs. I have to admit I gave up on this some time ago - GTK3 is just a PITA.

There's another reason why I want to stick with Open Office; except, y'know, it stopped working.
At least this gives me some hope to modify it with css.
Also, I suspect that this is somehow related to the issue that causes Open Office not to work. When I reinstalled my OS, there were a lot of gtk2 and gtk3 things that I never noticed before. They only get noticed when there's a problem.
