Yes it is. I agree, the design is to set "Explicitly no background" with None. > If your current bug is explicitly and exclusively about this, it must be > closed. The initial None is "use the inherited setting" and is different to the set-and-cleared-again None: "Explicitly no background", and you can't see the difference at the UI. I'm missing the possibility to set "background is not set here" in the UI. Actually only clear all formatting with Format > Clear Direct Formatting helps, but this is a secret feature, only found out by experienced users. Do we need an additional UI element for that? Wouldn't it be better to have a check option "Transparent" or "No Highlighting" on the Highlighting > Color tab and let the None always be the initial state? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
