Hi Chris, Could you report this following the instructions at <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs</a>? (i.e. create an account at <a href="http://launchpad.net">launchpad.net</a> and click Help->Report a Problem in OpenOffice.) That way the appropriate developers will get to see it. Thanks :) <div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 9, 2009 at 2:37 PM, Chris G <<a href="mailto:cl@isbd.net">cl@isbd.net</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> I'm amazed that I haven't seen this reported elsewhere, maybe it's some quirk of my system but it seems unlikely. I have recently upgraded from xubuntu 9.04 to xubuntu 9.10, mostly it has been fairly painless but just recently I tried to open some forms in OPen Office and noticed a rendering problem. So I tried opening some wordprocessor documents and the problem was the same. Any attempt at resizing the window in Open Office results in a total mess, the contents (i.e. the document or whatever) are not moved and resized with the frame so the menus and content are left 'stranded' and the rest of the window is filled with a 'trail' of frames. This makes Open Office completely unusable. It's some sort of rendering problem whereby the Open Office window contents are not redrawn when you resize the window. This is a fairly standard xubuntu 9.10 installation with Open Office 3.1.1 running on a 1920x1200 Dell U2410 screen. -- Chris Green -- xubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> -- Vincent
