Calc Background colour for Comments in EDIT mode

Insert Comment in Calc has a transparent background making it difficult to see what is being typed. Is there a way to change the transparency? (Note, the display of notes when hovering over the red dot is fine and I can see how to change that colour if needed - its the edit mode that I can’t seem to change the background colour or transparency). Thank you.

Never seen a transparent background there when editing, only the notes background.
LibreOffice (Help → About) and operating system and desktop environment / window manager details please.

Hi there. Thanks for responding.
LibreOffice version 7.3.5.2 running on M1 Mac Monterey 12.6

But there is no transparency here; so I think that it could be a feature of a new version of LibreOffice (here 7.2.5.1 on Linux) or an user profile corruption.

Edit: There is Skia in Mac?

Maybe adjust settings to Reduce Transparency in Mac dialogues, Change Display preferences for accessibility on Mac – Apple Support (UK)

It seems it was an issue for Edge browser on Mac too, https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/new-edge-for-macos-transparent-popup-dialogs/m-p/2001073

Thanks EarnestAl, I have tried reducing the transparency in MacOS Preferences and tried turning on hardware acceleration on LibreOffice. No difference I’m afraid. How do I check and repair my user profile?

Perfect - User profile was corrupt. I have reset and all is well. Thank you so much everyone.
