            Bug ID: 100918
           Summary: Pulldown menus blank
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: rcdaw...@att.net

This has happened to me two or three times.  I haven't been able to identify
any particular actions leading up to the problem.  Suddenly I find that the
pulldown menus are blank.  Clicking on, for instance, "File" causes the usual
background for the menu of actions (New,Open, Open Remote File, etc) to drop
down as usual, but there are no actions displayed.  

One time I found that, at the same time the above happened, I was unable to
select text.  Clicking and dragging did not have the usual response.  Instead
of "highlighting" text as the cursor moved over it, the cursor just jumped from
one character to the next.

I was able to exit by pressing Alt>F and then x.  (Probably should have pressed
Q, now that I can see the menu again.)  Closing and re-opening Writer restored
full functionality.

I am running Linux 17.1 with LibreOffice Version: 5.1.4.2, Build ID:
1:5.1.4-0ubuntu1~trusty1.  

Additional information from the About LibreOffice Help/about:  
CPU Threads: 2; OS Version: Linux 3.13; UI Render: default; 
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8)

I don't know how to cause this to happen, but it has happened to me three or
four times.  Sorry that I cannot provide further information.  If there is some
sort of log that I could check, please let me know so that next time I will be
able to provide more useful information.

Thank you,

Richard
