Can't read text in window

Hello,

i'm running Xubuntu 16.04 and i'm running LibreOffice calc.

Details of LibreOffice Calc:
- Version: 5.1.4.2
- Build ID: 1:5.1.4-0ubuntu1
- CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Linux 4.6; UI Render: default; 

There appears to be an issue with the font rendering in some windows (see attachment), where you can't read the description at all. In this case, when i try to delete a sheet from LibreOffice Calc, i can't read the message in the window.

What's the best course of action to solve this issue?

Best regards,

Hello adpinto95, *,
I cannot confirm your bug with
OS: Debian Testing AMD64
LO: Version: 5.1.5.2
Build ID: 1:5.1.5~rc2-1
CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Linux 4.5; UI Render: GL; 
Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); Calc: group
DM/WM: XFCE/XFWM 4.1.2 (default font: Liberation Sans, fixed font: Liberation Mono)

Which DM/WM are you using on XUbunt and which font? Does changing the font in your DM changes the text in the dialog?
HTH
Thomas.

Hello again,
i'm using XFCE (Version 4.12) as DE and xfwm4 as WM. the font i am using is open Sans 8.
Yes, changing the font in my DM changes the font in the dialog.

OS: linux 
Kernel: x86_64 Linux 4.6.0-040600-generic

Please update to LibreOffice 5.1.5 or 5.2.0, the bug is fixed there.
