Description Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2017-10-02 19:21:03 UTC
Created attachment 136710 [details]
various popups that didnt work

steps:
1. open writer in Arabic UI
2. click on down arrow button portion of the font or highlight color toolbar control to see the color palette and the popup overlaps the button
3. click on line spacing or special character group button and nothing happens
4. click on down arrow button portion of the basic shapes button, or any of the spit buttons in the drawing toolbar and the popup will open up overlapping the button or far away from the button

This only happens in gtk2. Gtk3 has its own set of issues in bug 112845

I tested with my own build of master which contains this fix (Build ID: 13a27860ae79ee8ac9c96b8beb6d3d7aa56a9d94), and unfortunately the bug is still there. I didn't test with an Arabic UI, just with exporting SAL_RTL_ENABLED=1 (no idea if that makes any difference).

Still happens.

Comment 4 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2017-10-08 10:22:37 UTC
Another problem is that clicking the the up/down arrow part of a drop down list (e.g. page deck of the sidebar, font effects tab of character dialog)
Comment 5 Caolán McNamara 2017-10-17 16:09:43 UTC
the gtk2 overlap would probably go away with matching the gtk2 code to this gtk3 change https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=19a7c81d3ce2a8a7b9a6ed305e474a80fd286ddf

dunno what other side effects that might have in gtk2 world though
Comment 6 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2017-10-19 20:56:05 UTC
Yes steps 2 and 3 are fixed. step 4 and the step in comment 4 are still remaining.

Step 4 bug (popup overlaps Insert Basic Shapes button) is still seen in:

i.e. when it was activated in GTK2 mode,
        using 'SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN="gtk" ./soffice'

OS: Debian 64bit Stretch (Debian 9.2, with some backported packages)

I used Hebrew UI in my tests.
