The problem:

I placed a green border around the Footnote Anchor and Footnote Charaters style template. Whenever i scroll the newly created footnode out of the viewport and scroll back, the border is either partially drawn around the footnote or there is no border left anymore. The more strange thing is that all other footnotes behave the same way on the entire document: Some are drawn perfectly ok, some are fragmented and some are drawn without any border and the affected footnotes finally lose the entire drawn border the more you scroll up and down or throughout the document and viewport. I get the same visual result, whenever i export the document as pdf on the final pdf file: Some ok, some fragmented or partially drawn, some wthout any border. Sample screenshot attached. The difference here is, that everything that has gone wrong wont change while you navigate around the document. The way the footers are drawn wont change, what for sure is as expected.

There is no difference whether i use hardware acceleration or Open-GL for rendering the document. The problem still persists, which is guess is a issue related in the graphics drawing engine or the way LibreOffice Writer draws the graphical object or uses the drawing methods/functions. Possibly a missing Update/Invalidate command on the graphics object?

Repro on Windows & Linux. It seems this is a new feature in 4.4 and the problem has existed from the beginning. In 4.3 the borders are not shown at all.

Dear KerryGee,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Warm Regards,
QA Team
