Description Jean-Sebastien Bevilacqua 2018-04-30 12:58:52 UTC
Description:
In a Base form, if you set a field half out of the window and you select it, all the labels of the form disappear.

I join a PDF file with screenshot to visualize the bug and a test base file to reproduce it.

The workaround is to resize the window.

Thanks.

Steps to Reproduce:
Follow the PDF guide

Actual Results:  
Labels disappear

Expected Results:
Labels should be visible


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Bug first seems to occur in LO 5.1.6.2

Testing with LO4.x release versions up to 4452 showed no problem.
Comment 8 Xisco Faulí 2018-05-02 14:52:26 UTC
it needs to be bisected with the repos for 5.1

tail of bibisect output

Working on debian-buster in the till51 bibisect repository, I see that
the bug came into LO somewhere in the 151 or so source commits:

          commit    date        s-h
          --------  ----------  --------
    good  0ca724ef  2015-09-01  0c1d3f0c
    bad   29a332f0  2015-09-02  84eafb6a

I am setting keyword bibisected.
Comment 10 Buovjaga 2018-06-06 13:10:48 UTC
I bibisected with bibisect-win32-5.1 and it gave this, which is somewhat puzzling to me: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=af11abf3626e12d2b4b7dd9d255c6c71bf84cd4b

SwViewShell::ImplEndAction: still paint directly when non-double-buffering
It turns out that in this case it hurts performance if we go via
invaliation-then-paint instead of direct painting when double-buffering
is not enabled.

Related commits:

- beb4aa21d61f0d66392d596be86fb57b4b167239 (SwViewShell::ImplEndAction:
  avoid direct paint, 2015-06-29) and
  c9175a1bd3249ad573ae6827bf19963a3ebe2fbc (SwViewShell::ImplEndAction:
  avoid direct PaintDesktop(), 2015-07-03) globally avoided direct paints
- 222f10e773ba51a19880be1b798990260c198147 (tdf#93096 sw: fix selection
  with keyboard outside current view, 2015-08-18) restored direct paint
  when non-double-buffering for the second commit, this one does the
  same for the first

I did checkout the commit and step to previous to verify that the bad/good result is correct.

So, for a long time we did direct paint, then on 2015-06-29 I changed to lazy paint, then this turned out to be a bad idea, so I went back to the original state with the above commit on 2015-09-01. Could you please confirm that if you test the state right before beb4aa21d61f0d66392d596be86fb57b4b167239, then the problem is still there?

Thanks.

I did git log beb4aa21d61f0d66392d596be86fb57b4b167239 and copied the previous hash.

In bibisect-win32-5.1 I did git log --all --grep='39b04ad7cb2e10f32e92d3c9bec57e35f64a3304' to find the hash in the repo and checked it out.

I also checked out the commit matching beb4aa21d61f0d66392d596be86fb57b4b167239.

The problem is NOT in either commit.
Comment 13 Miklos Vajna 2018-07-04 07:16:29 UTC
Thanks, some investigation will be needed here, then. Currently I don't understand how it's possible that a revert causes a regression, but the state before the original commit is fine.
Comment 14 Miklos Vajna 2019-06-06 15:27:35 UTC
What might help is to bisect the beb4aa21d61f0d66392d596be86fb57b4b167239 -> af11abf3626e12d2b4b7dd9d255c6c71bf84cd4b range with beb4aa21d61f0d66392d596be86fb57b4b167239 reverted, probably some breakage was introduced in that range, but it only became visible with the revert. I've started doing that.
Comment 15 Miklos Vajna 2019-06-07 07:53:48 UTC
So this is a regression from bug 92577.

Minimal reproducer document.

A smaller reproducer: a plain Writer document with just one text field and label.

Make the window small enough that only part of the text field shows up, then click into the text field -> label disappears.
