Calc menu font colour change

Hello folks, long time user of Libreoffice, thank you to the team behind it.

Minor question which relates to the font colour for menu bars, I use system colours on LMDE (just upgraded to 7) which gives a light grey background to the menu bar, unfortunately the text is almost invisible without hoovering over to highlight what the function is.

I have tried many of the settings over the years especially when doing a fresh install this weekend, other than going to a dark theme I have never managed to find a solution or other users asking about this, please see attached screen shot below - any tips greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

That’s strange, when I write ‘dark theme’ in my post it changes to ‘dark topic’ ?

edit: its changed it again, its supposed to read ’ dark t h e m e’
