Great stuff, but...
by Steve on Monday 08/Jan/2007, @15:57
...will it support changing the background colour away from the KDE UI settings? That's the reason I don't use KOffice, because I like my dark grey colour scheme, but I don't like document backgrounds being dark grey.

AFAIK you can define a color scheme per application
So you could define another color scheme for koffice

You're kidding, right? Are you seriously claiming that you don't use an office application because you don't like the background colour behind the documents? I find that really hard to believe.

    I dont use Koffice by two reason, sheet color what changes as neutral-gray what i need to use because editing pictures, and i would like to have sheet paper as white so i can see what it would look like on paper with pictures and other objects.

    second reason is that sheet papers dont have any space between them. It's more like toilet paper what you are writing and it just dont look good. I made few wishes for middle sheet and those were taked to use so paper is on middle but there is no space still between sheets... when it comes, koffice will go over OOo.

      Both these issues are already done in svn. You'll be able to switch when 2.0 comes out :)
      see this old image that shows page-spreads and the page spacing;
      http://members.home.nl/zander/images/200606-KWord-PageSpread.png

      In case you wonder; the page fully in view is a 'pagespread' which means its one page that will be printed to be 2 pages. Some people need that. The direct effect is that you don't see a split in that page. But the other pages lower will have the spacing.

Currently that feature you don't like is not implemented; the background is always the paper color :)

This is a controversial feature indeed; I'm sure that if we re-add it we will do so with a config setting.
