Abstract
Calc's sheet tab now supports non-default background color. When a sheet tab has a non-default color, Calc displays a sliver of its color below the name if the sheet that the tab is associated with is active. For all the other tabs that are associated with the non-active sheets, their non-default color becomes their respective background color.
