Public bug reported:
Hi I have dell inspiron laptop and I'm using gnome ubuntu 14.04 LTS fall-back
with matacity 64bit, composting is on for docky.
While using the standard LibreOffice which came with the disto, Every time I
use the Font colour highlighting feature in Impress, or any of the three
highlighting features in Writer and Calc and then change the colour, it makes
the panels on my desktop and Docky disappear. I do as much of the highlighting
as possible before restoring panels and dock, as panels and dock just keep on
disappearing the same way after restoring them. The document itself is not
affect in any way. While the panel is invisible, all the icons are still
functional. Some of the icons are also usable, I just have to guess where the
icons are and click onto them and they become visible, such as Applications and
Places. Workspace Switcher and Show Desktop also work. Others such as the
Indicator Applet Complete - calendar, internet , mail, sound and so on all
remain invisible, if I click on one of these, I wont know its opened until I
restore the panels, see my workaround below.
My workaround to restore the dock and panel is to Alt+Ctrl+Del twice and then
everything re-appears, I then cancel the logout pop-up window.
I have a friend I helped install a similar fallback with matacity system
using the normal ubuntu 14.04 LTS distro (not gnome) 64bit, again
composting is on for Docky, different type of laptop with the same
issues.
Both my friend and I do a lot of highlighting in our docs and its so
annoying for us we are thinking of replacing LibreOffice with
OpenOffice, at the same time we would rather stay with LibreOffice if
someone could help us somehow, thanks in advance.
