Created attachment 158996 [details] Table Wizard missing data on right hand side Creating a table using the Table Wizard, when I press Next to go to page 2 of the wizard ("Set field types and formats"), things go awry. I can only see the Field Name on the right hand side of this area – no sign of Field type, AutoValue, Auto-increment state, and Length. Also the title at the top of the right-hand side (Field information) is corrupted. I've attached a screenshot.
Thank you for reporting the bug. it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
I'm deliberately using an older version - I'm working in the Documetation Team checking the accuracy of a draft 6.4 Guide. However I have been assured by Drew Jensen (via the Documentation Team's mailing list) that the problem is still present in Builde 7.0.
What about writing doc about 6.4 with last 6.4.2?
I'm a bit confused - as far as this apparent software problem is concerned, does it matter which version of 6.4 I'm using for documentation activities? (For information I'm not writing anything, I was doing the final review of a chapter of a document that was written some weeks ago. Since I've already checked many of the chapters in this particular guide against a reference 6.4.0.3 build, it makes no sense to switch to a newer build for this activity). The key point seems to be that I'm advised that the bug still exists in the latest build of software (via the Doc Team mailing list) and I was asked to raise this bug to address it.
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce this with gen rendering. I don't reproduce this with gtk3 rendering.

(In reply to Julien Nabet from comment #9) > Xisco: I noticed you added "regression", on which version did it work? Yes, because Steve mentioned it... I've bisected it and the problem started to happen after https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=8c66efa030e98cfdf5da20be368566d64e43c5d1
Thank you Xisco for having bibisected it. Caolán: put you in cc. I must recognize I don't know how it's related with a Java part.

I was focused on the shift, it seems more serious than this now. I must recognize I can't help here. (Perhaps we should also revert my patch on master)
