version: master build as of commit e95930d96459cc653342e78617db9498255569d0 VCL: kde5 on X11 (the gtk3 VCL plugin e.g. works fine) platform: Debian testing, Plasma 5 desktop Steps to reproduce: 1) start LibreOffice Base: ./instdir/program/soffice --base Result: "Database Wizard" opens. In addition, there's a white window in the background that has the window title "soffice.bin". Expected result: The additional white window should not be there. [Side note: In addition, some texts are not shown at first on the left-hand side ("Select database", "Save and proceed" until hovering the mouse over that place, but that's probably already covered by bug 119720.]

For KDe5 only I had a problem with using the progress bar created using createStatusIndicator(). In my Base application when activating a process from a form I expected the form to retain as is but with a growing progress bar in the status area. When the process completed the progress bar would be closed. Starting with 6.2.0, using KDE5, instead of my expected results I got a repeatedly white flashing screen. The form that started the process would not be visible and neither was the progress bar. When the process completed the screen reverted back to my form. This patch by Katarina Behrens fixes this problem. Tested it in 6.2.3 as fixed.
Happy to read :thumbs-up:
