I'm using openSUSE Tumbleweed (current version). Since the update to LibreOffice 6.1 (beta and the current RC) the scrollbars aren't working within LibreOffice. I can't click on them and move them. In rare cases it works if I click _beside_ the scrollbar. I'm running Plasma 5. According to the openSUSE developers it's a bug in the LO Qt interface, so I file the bug here. :) (Please note that scrolling itself works, for example I can navigate through a LibreOffice Writer document. I just can't click and move the scrollbars with the mouse.)
bubli, can you say something about this?
Can you post a screenshot of your Help > About Libreoffice dialog? Plasme 5 doesn't necessarily mean that kde4* frontend is being used. *) yes this ain't a typo, in 6.1 kf5 frontend ain't in place yet Also > According to the openSUSE developers which openSUSE developers?

(In reply to Katarina Behrens (CIB) from comment #2) > Can you post a screenshot of your Help > About Libreoffice dialog? Uploaded above. > > According to the openSUSE developers > > which openSUSE developers? I've opened a bug report in the openSUSE bugtracker (with the same title as this bug report). Unfortunately I can't find it anymore in the database. I don't know any of the openSUSE developers but one answered in that bug report that it is a bug in the LO Qt interface and that I have report it here. He then closed my bug report (and maybe deleted it?). btw: The vertical scrollbars aren't working too.

I can confirm this behavior (LO 6.0.5.2 with gtk3-kde5) For a first workaround. Start (plasma) System Settings Select "application styles" Select "Gnome Application Style …" Set on the right site "On left-clicking the scroll bar:" to "Jump to the mouse cursor position" This change helped me.
Now we know OP has gtk3_kde5 frontend (kde5 filepicker over gtk3 GUI) so nope, it is very unlikely the issue has anything to do with Qt Sadly, I have Plasma 5 and I can't reproduce w/ gtk3_kde5, scrollbars WFM. But maybe someone else can ... To whomever may want to test: start LibO like this SAL_USE_VCPLUGIN=gtk3_kde5 soffice
> SAL_USE_VCPLUGIN=gtk3_kde5 soffice SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3_kde5 soffice (why can't I edit comments I've made? grrr)
Could it be a problem with the screen resolution and/or DPI? For example LO is calculating the position of the mouse clicks wrong? What's the resolution of your display? btw: I have this problem only in LibreOffice, all other programs are working as expected (including GTK+ and Qt applications).
Also please try if the same happens w/ other frontends -- gtk, gtk3 or gen Start LibO (from commandline) like this: SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 soffice SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk soffice SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen soffice
> SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 soffice Scrollbars don't work. > SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk soffice Scrollbars don't work. > SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen soffice Scrollbars are working as expected. (btw: openSUSE updated LibreOffice to version 6.1.0.3. The bug is still there. In LO 6.0 the bug isn't present.)
Is it this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=389709 ?
No reply, closing as assumed same.
