Public bug reported: What happens:
When trying to use all the textual menus in libreoffice they appear to shoort, only one option is visible at a time and you need to use cursor up/down to locate the option you are looking for (can do it also by pointing the mouse to the arrow up/down in the menu, but it is too fast scrolling) I've found this situation with and without lo-menubar installed. Using Unity as interface. Attached you'll find a screenshot of what you see after clicking on "File". Instead of the full menu you can see a small menu that has room just for one menu item at a time. This doesn't happen for non-text menus, (for example "font color", "text background" , "borders" on LibreOffice Calc), and happens also for contextual menus (right-click on a cell, cell selection, row, column) and when clicking on icon-menus down-arrow (like the "new sheet" icon in the icon bar, that has a "down arrow" icon besides it. The menu corresponding to that "down arrow" also appears to small) What is expected to happen: When I click on a menu item (top bar, "down arrow" besides an icon menu or contextual menu at a cell/row/column level) the full menu should be visible, including all its menu items. additional information: lsb_release -rd: Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 apt-cache policy libreoffice: libreoffice: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 Version table: 1:3.5.3-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://es.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main amd64 Packages 1:3.5.2-2ubuntu1 0 500 http://es.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: libreoffice (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-26.41-generic 3.2.19 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-26-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Jul 13 10:32:20 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120425) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: libreoffice UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug libreoffice menus precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1024292 Title: text menus are too short Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: What happens: When trying to use all the textual menus in libreoffice they appear to shoort, only one option is visible at a time and you need to use cursor up/down to locate the option you are looking for (can do it also by pointing the mouse to the arrow up/down in the menu, but it is too fast scrolling) I've found this situation with and without lo-menubar installed.
