--- Comment #3 from [email protected] ---
Actually, I am on 4.2.4.2.  In the bug report I filled in the first version of
LibO in which the bug appeared.

Tested with LibO from libreoffice.org to make sure it was not due to ubuntu
build.

As mentioned, bug appearance depends on the combination of DPI and icon size
you use, which is why you may not be able to see it. The point is that LibO 4.1
never showed this issue at any DPI and icon size and does not show the issue
when run on the same machine, with the same config.

I am making the bug visible with a couple of screenshots. The attached picture
is a montage of two screenshots made with the print screen functionality.
Montage is done with imagemagick to assure that the images are aligned to the
pixel. Montage is then imported into an image editor itself, in order to add a
couple of horizontal and vertical red lines that help noticing the skew in the
drawing canvas positioning due to the different toolbar height.

Specifically, screenshot A is taken with line and filling toolbar, screenshot B
after selecting text in order to make the text formatting toolbar substitute
the line toolbar and filling.  Screenshots A and B are then mounted as

A B
B

This lets both the horizontal and the vertical alignments be checked.  Red
reference lines are placed around the toolbar and at the edges of the letter
'T' in the drawing canvas.

As evident, the text formatting toolbar is two pixels taller than the line and
formatting toolbar. As a result, when the text is selected and the text
formatting toolbar appears, the text itself jumps down two pixels, when text is
deselected, the text jumps back up two pixels.

Now, two pixels may seem like nothing. But when you are trying to do precision
aliments and you frequently alternate text and non text selections, having the
image moving up and down even by two pixels is an issue that makes you go back
to LibO 4.1 immediately, regardless of the other advantages that LibO 4.2 may
have.
