Description: When I start LibreOffice and the create a new presentation with my DWM window manager (full-screen), the fonts are getting weird (not shown) when I switch between slides. This is only happening when the application is started without any other window on the screen, so that it is full-screen opened. Can be reproduced Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run DWM as window manager 2. Open up libreoffice with dmenu, no other window is open on that workspace 3. Create new presentation 4. Change title of first slide to Test 2 5. Add a second slide with Ctrl-M 6. Switch back to the first slide 7. The Test 2 text only displays "Te t" Actual Results: Missing font renderings of single letters. This happens often with larger slide decks, all the time. Whenever I resize the window, a refresh happens and the rendering is fine again. Expected Results: Proper font text rendering Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 6.3.4.2.0+ Build ID: 6.3.4-2 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: de-AT (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
Created attachment 157688 [details] This is the result rendering of "Test 2"
What linux distro do you use? Can you download LibreOffice from libreoffice.org/download (there are rpm and deb packages), try install it and retest your problem?
I am using Arch and installed the Arch-provided packages. This bug is already present since couple of releases. My this relate to the tiling window manager, where the window is fullscreent without and window decorations?

Can you try build LibreOffice from source code and try retest your problem then? https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/BuildingOnLinux
I just did further testing, with and without different external monitors, and also with a different machine running ArchLinux. New observation: the effect is only present with an 4k external monitor attached. I cannot reproduce the effect with the same laptop on the internal monitor only, or attaching an HD monitor attached. Are there any known resolution issues which am relate to this issue?
So, we need people with HiDPI screen for checking it
I had this issue in 6.4 as well (on GNOME with my built-in screen). However, I just tested on 7.0 beta and it seems to be resolved!
Cool, good to hear. Looking forward to get version 7.0
I set Needinfo for br to test. Please do with daily master https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html that will install separately. If OM for you, please mark as a duplicate.
