I recently updated Libreoffice to the latest version (24.8.2.1) and I now see that the little Comment flags in Calc, in the top right hand corner of the cells, has changed shape/colour from red square to grey triangle.
The new flag is difficult to see. Is there a way to format it? I was happy with it as it was before.
Thanks.

Improvements to the comment indicator in Calc. Use the expert setting
NoteIndicatorwith values above1to have a fix size for the indicator. (Heiko Tietze, TDF) tdf#158958
Thank you. I’ve played with those setting now. I changed the Comment Flag/Indicator colour to red, which worked fine.
I then played with changing the Flag/Indicator size - why is it called a Comment Flag/Indicator in one place and a Note Indicator in another? Anyway, I found that any setting I choose didn’t become effective until I saved the calc file and then expanded a column. Nothing changed until I expanded a column, at which all Indicators jumped to their adjusted size. Is this as expected?
I’ve set it to 6 and that suits me fine - It looks like it was before.
Thanks.
And what you find named “comment” once and"note" in the other place is named “annotation” in the API. 
It seems to be nearly impossible to use one name for one thing - and only for that thing in IT. And surely it’s impossible to tidy up the mess.
