Hi Iain, I was playing around today with this issue of OO. For kicks I logged in as root and the OO problem didn't exist. Then I created a new user, and opened OO 3.1, and the problem didn't exist. So, now I've come to the conclusion there is something in my gnome setup files thats corrupted or corrupting apps. So now I'm working on the monumental task of recreating my user session. I wish there was a gnome session backup.
My session GUI involves many Draws and Icons in the Panels (yes I have one top and bottom). And still not being able to name the Draws is annoying. Thanks for the response. BTW, SUNWicu is installed.
