Make LibreOffice Looks Better
Sexy look and feel is one requirement to love the products which you are using. Even though LibreOffice is a good alternative for Microsoft Office, I wasn’t satisfy with the default look and feel of LibreOffice. Here, I am sharing the tweaks I made to fall in deep relationship with LibreOffice. I have shared the original links to give the credential to original authors.

Adjust Row Height in Calc: Go to Format → Row → Height and set 0.25" as the default value.

Go to Tools → Options → Charts → Default Colors and select the colors in your preferable order.
Here is my preference:
