Created attachment 150677 [details] The presentation causing this problem I have these problems with a particular presentation. When this file is opened in Impress, Impress won't render its UI elements (menus and dialogues) until I move mouse pointer over them. Without mouse movement I can only see transparent or black boxes. Also when starting slide show for this presentation, only a black screen is visible and I have to move the mouse to see slides and their animations (The animation currently works by mouse movement, while it must run independently)
Created attachment 150678 [details] Opening a menu will result in this situation until mouse move over it
Created attachment 150679 [details] Most of the times, openning a dialog results in this
Created attachment 150682 [details] I can see this effect when click a menu item and scroll through menus by arrow keys

(In reply to Buovjaga from comment #6) > If on fedora, package name should be libreoffice-gtk3 This had been installed when i noticed this problem. OK that was a little weird. While ago I downloaded and installed Libreoffice 6.2.2.2 manually. That is, there are two versions of LibreOffice on my system. The version 6.1.5.2 is installed by default and I use applications menu to launch it. The usual method of launching the newer version is by calling 'soffice' from terminal; My PATH points to location of the manually installed version. Also I had set 'SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen' in ~/.bashrc That day I launched 6.2.2.2 from a terminal and tried to start a slide show for a presentation, but Impress would display a black screen. When I opened "About" window, It said it was version 6.1.5.2 and was using x11. Also if i issued 'soffice --version', it would report 6.1.5.2. Now I have changed my .bashrc to set SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk, and everything seems OK.

Using gen VCL backend is what causes x11 to be shown in the About window. If you now use SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk, it will use gtk2. You should just remove SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN altogether and it should default to gtk3. For the record, I have no problems with gen.
