Bug ID: 155357
Summary: Provide a command line parameter to select GPU used
for Skia hardware rendering
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.0.0 alpha1+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: graphics stack
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I am using X11/Skia ui for LibreOffice on Linux.
Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha1+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: c01639c556276e496d9e762468cad6b27f9ed0f4
CPU threads: 12; OS: Linux 5.19; UI render: Skia/Vulkan; VCL: x11
Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: CL threaded
By enabling Skia, and having "Force Skia software rendering" unchecked, I can
see Skia log using "Copy skia.log" button:
RenderMethod: vulkan
Vendor: ...
Device: ...
API: ...
Driver: ...
DeviceType: integrated
DeviceName: Intel(R) Graphics (...)
Denylisted: no
I have a dual Intel/NVIDIA GPU installed, and now it is using Intel integrated
GPU with Vulkan renderer. But, it should be possible to tell LibreOffice to use
specific GPU.
In Vulkan C++ examples, I see that the binaries take a -g/--gpu command line
argument, so that you can tell them which GPU to use:

I think having such an option in LibreOffice would be useful.
