Create a header description and then press auto filter icon. then create some data to filter.
If you then press the the downward pointing arrow box to activate the filter dialog box and as soon as you try to move the mouse pointer onto the dialog box it disapears and you are not able to sort any data.

This has only happened with this update ver 6.0.6.2

2.use auto filter on icon bar on created header

3.create data for said header then try to sort data by pressing the drop down box with mouse pointer and selecting field

Actual Results:
Drop down down dialog box disapears as soon as you try and move mouse off drop down header arrow

Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Thank you for your prompt response.

I think it may well be an issue with this particular laptop. I have tried to do a Timeshift to reset the computer to an previous version of LibreOffice and the drop down arrow works as it should. But as soon as I allow Linux to update libreOffice to 6.0.6.2 the same problem happens again.

I have managed to get another computer with Linux Mint with the same version of LibreOffice 6.0.6.2 and the dialog box works correctly?? So it seems it must be the individual laptop that for some reason has a problem.

Many thanks once again for your response.
