Video of bug

Some elements flicker when hovering the mouse over them and the tooltip does not display. Elements affected include thumbnails on main LibreOffice window, all buttons, some (but not all) checkboxes/radios in the configuration menus. Note, the bug is not shown when doing a screencast, so I have attached a video recorded on my phone.

This bug appeared in KDE when upgrading Kubuntu from 18.04 to 18.10. It only happens to me in KDE, not in Gnome or Unity desktop environments. 

Here is what didn't work:

- Deleting my LibreOffice config directory
- Using a completely new user profile
- Turning off compositing in KDE
- Turning on/off OpenGL in LibreOffice

This bug is similar to https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93120, however I don't think they are the same. This one happens even when not moving the mouse, the flickering is super fast, and this affects KDE instead of Windows.

Here is my hardware and software information:

Comment 1 Maxim Monastirsky 2019-02-03 01:04:53 UTC
It seems that Ubuntu 18.10 still has gtk3 of version 3.24.1, in which case it's a duplicate of Bug 121361. Look at Bug 121361 comment 3 for a workaround (or somehow update your gtk3 version to the latest).

Thank you. The workaround worked.
