When resizing the main application window, it does not resize correctly.
In particular, when the top or left boundaries of the window are used to
perform the resizing, the application's title-bar, main menu and icons
are not redrawn correctly and become inaccessible.

Steps to reproduce:
1) From the Applications menu, start one of the OpenOffice applications (Word 
Processor, Spreadsheet or Presentation).
2) Attempt to resize the window by dragging the top or left edge of the 
application window (you may need to click the application window's 
"(un)maximise" button (top right, next to the "X" for closing the window) to 
allow resizing).

What I expect to happen:
The application's layout (including the title-bar, main menu and icons) should 
be adjusted and re-drawn dynamically as the application is resized, and then 
finally when the resize operation is complete.

What happens instead:
The application's layout is not adjusted, and the title-bar, main menu and/or 
icons become inaccessible.

WORKAROUND:
Right-click on the application in the panel at the bottom of the screen, and 
choose "Maximise" from the pop-up menu... then repeat and choose "unmaximise". 
The application is redrawn correctly in it's new size. (This does not work with 
"Minimise - Unminimise").

Architecture: i386

DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10

Package: openoffice.org-core 1:3.1.1-5ubuntu1 [modified:
var/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/program/services.rdb]

I only get the redraw problem when I specifically resize the application from 
the top/left edges.
I've not been able to reproduce the problem in any other applications besides 
OpenOffice (including Firefox, GIMP, Inkscape, Rosegarden, Audacity, Ardour, 
NetBeans, Synaptic Package Manager).

This is still occurring in Xubuntu10.10 (with OpenOffice3.2.1).

I really cannot reproduce that bug, nor I have ever been able to.

(I am not using neither Ubuntu nor Xubuntu though, yet I doubt that
makes any difference).

For sure I have been able to consistently reproduce it on Xubuntu v9.10, v10.04 
and now v10.10. From my experience (and other posts) it seems:
  a) specific to Xubuntu (not Ubuntu or other platforms)
  b) specific to OpenOffice (Xubuntu doesn't seem to do this with other apps)
  c) not specific to one machine (I've seen 3 machines, others are reported 
also)
  c) not specific to NVidia (it's reproduced on Intel graphics also)
so I suspect that on a Xubuntu machine there's a fair chance the problem could 
be reproduced.

I just discovered that installing the "openoffice.org-gtk" package in
Xubuntu somewhat resolves the problem, but it gives the whole
spreadsheet contents a faded appearance (black text appears grey) which
is not good. Perhaps this gives a clue to the root of the original
problem though.

I had the same problem with both Libre Office and Shotcut (video
editor). since I didn't have any problem with Libre using Cinnamon on an
old laptop so I switched the desktop computer to Cinnamon and the
problem went away.  Both computers are 17.2 with the latest recommended
kernel.
