Bug #: 49986
Summary: EDITING: EDITING: Display refresh not working properly
after deletion of text
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: LibO 3.3.4 release
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Status Whiteboard: BSA
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]

Screenshot showing new text inserted on the second line, causing the word
'making' to be partially dispalyed on its original line, instead of being
wrapped to the next line.
Problem description:
When editing text, insertion or deletion often does not correctly refresh the
display until I force a refresh (by scrolling the window, for example), or
until what appears to be a built-in timer initiates a refresh after a number of
seconds, which I have not been able to time. (The only timer I can identify is
in Options/Load Save/General/Save AutoRecovery Information, which is set to 15
minutes).
Garbage remains on the affected line, to the right of the insertion/deletion
point. Often, the remaining text is truncated so the first character of the
spurious part is only partly displayed.
This bug was posted to Linux Questions and at least one other user, on a
different platform, has noticed the same problem. See
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=4679493#post4679493
In Options/LibreOffice/View, I am using Hardware Acceleration and AntiAliasing
- that is the way LibreOffice was configured at installation time and I have
not changed anything.
Under Fedora 14, using Compiz, I had identical display refresh errors when
editing an OpenOffice Writer document. The fix then was to edit the Compiz
settings, to enable the module 'Workarounds'. I cannot find any equivalent
option with my current system.
I do not have display rendering issues with any other application.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a paragraph of text.
2. Delete or insert some text.
3. Observe the remaining text, to the right.
Current behavior:
Text to the right of the insertion/deletion point is not correctly refreshed on
screen.
Expected behavior:
The display should refresh to correctly show the state of the remaining text.
Platform (if different from the browser):
