I am able to replicate the 'right-click' menu popping up when trying to resize in any other interface rather than unity (gnome-shell, gnome- fallback), but not the strange orange overlay highlight. In Unity I am still having both the 'right-click' menu opening as well as the strange orange overlay appearing. I wonder what it is about that bottom corner that is messing up.
I can confirm that it is not a libreoffice issue, but a Ubuntu issue, as this is the only distribution that I have seen with this problem. -- 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/749986 Title: Resizing LO window from bottom right brings up pop-up and undesirable effects Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “light-themes” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” source package in Precise: Confirmed Status in “light-themes” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: 1) Oneiric: Ubuntu 11.10 Natty: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Release: 11.04 2) Oneiric: libreoffice 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2 Natty: apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc libreoffice-calc: Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 Version table: *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 3) What is expected to happen is one may resize a LibreOffice window from the bottom right by putting the mouse icon to the bottom right of the window, click and hold, and move the window size as desired. 4) What happens instead is if the white arrow pointing down and to the right, clicking will bring up the File Menu, as well undesirable affects (ex. the whole sheet is highlighted but clicking inside does not unhighlight, can no longer resize). Other corners and sides works fine for resizing the window. A screenshot of this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/749986/+attachment/2078779/+files/Libreoffice_resize-grip.png WORKAROUND: Resize using the top left and right corners or ALT+F8 and use the keyboard. WORKAROUND: create a .gtkrc-2.0__libreoffice file in your home directory, with the following content: style "default-style" { GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0 GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0 } class "GtkWidget" style "default-style" and then launch libreoffice writer (or another component) with the command: GTK2_RC_FILES=.gtkrc-2.0__libreoffice libreoffice -writer WORKAROUND: Make sure the black arrow pointing down and right shows up, then resize is successful. + Not reproducible in Xubuntu 11.10 32-bit. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release: 11.10 apt-cache policy libreoffice-writer libreoffice-writer: Installed: 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.4.4-0ubuntu1~ppa1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/749986/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
