When I use the search function and the program highlights a cell with that found text the box it uses to highlight the cell is light gray colored, making it difficult to spot. How do I change this color? Cannot find it in Styles or similar.

Done, in original question.
As I understand it, the highlight colour is the operating system highlight colour. I believe it is relatively easy to change in Linux and Mac but requires editing registry in Windows.

It affects selections in all components.
I’m using Mac with Monterey 12.6.3. Here is a screenshot of an OpenOffice file when I searched for this cell with the arrow - a fat dark black frame surrounds the cell. The second screenshot is a LibreOffice file when I searched for the cell with the arrow - a light gray frame that’s hard to see. Is this an operating system issue I can change? If so why does it happen in LO and not AOO?
(second screen shot in next post)
LibreOffice now uses system colours for highlight.

Thanks, EarnestAI, that did the trick.
