Description: When you open the LibreOffice settings menu (Tools -> Options on Windows) the dropdown menus for some sections have a very tiny width, most notably on LibreOffice -> View. Can also be seen on LibreOffice Impress -> General, which apparently has a problem with a column since the text above the dropdowns gets cut off as well. If the window if resized to a big enough width the dropdowns and text get back to normal. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the settings window 2. Select LibreOffice -> View Actual Results: The dropdowns have a very small width Expected Results: The dropdowns should be clearly visible Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: Versão: 6.4.4.2 (x64) ID de compilação: 3d775be2011f3886db32dfd395a6a6d1ca2630ff Threads da CPU: 8; SO: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; Realizador da interface: GL; VCL: win; Local: pt-BR (pt_BR); Idioma de IU: pt-BR Calc: CL

Thank you for reporting the bug. To be certain the reported issue is not related to corruption in the user profile, could you please reset your Libreoffice profile ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile ) and re-test? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present

Please change it back to > 'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present Thank you for the answer. Yes, I reset the user profile as described in the link you sent and the problem persists. As you might have seen in the screenshots I included, the UI language I have for LO is Brazilian portuguese. I also seen this problem happen for other users who make LO video tutorials in pt-br, but I cannot recall seeing this happen in videos where the UI language was set to English, I wonder if the problem could be specifically with the localization of LO for pt-br? I was a little surprised to see that apparently noone had created a bug report for this before, perhaps it could be because it's exclusive to the pt-br localization. Does this happen to you, Xisco?

Maybe try with version 7.0. Instead of OpenGL, we now use Skia if supported by your hardware.

Please also try Help - Restart in safe mode and then Continue in safe mode.

Unfortunately it still happens in safe mode, but I couldn't force Skia to be used along with it in case this is important.
(In reply to mat.venturini from comment #4) > perhaps it could be because it's exclusive to the pt-br localization. I managed to make it display correctly by changing the UI language to English, so it is indeed most likely a problem with the Portuguese localization (both European and American Portuguese cause this problem).

Andreas: as you worked on https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/208b3a9bff95e2f6151c2458cf7eefe43dafa20e maybe you are interested in this.
Comments from Caolán: fundamentally the options dialog has too many pages to measure what is an ideal size, so it has an arbitrary size, so while every now and then its made larger, if ridiculously long translations are used then something isn't going to fit "Utilizar as métricas da impressora na formatação do documento" for "Use printer metrics for document formatting" is too long to be in a column with "compatibility" on a row of its own, and maybe move that "new document" into a column would make it all fit. Though I don't know if that would be a nice arrangement
Impress -> General page was fixed in bug 131162 LibreOffice -> View still needs fixing.
Dear mat.venturini, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-UntouchedBug

With gtk3, the dialog adapts its width to make strings fit. For example, testing with French UI, going to Options > Load / Save > General > Load (Options > Chargement/enregistrement > Général > Charger). Version: 24.2.3.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 433d9c2ded56988e8a90e6b2e771ee4e6a5ab2ba CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: fr-FR Calc: CL threaded When using the gen VCL plugin, a string is truncated, the dialog allows reducing the width enough to hide a part of the string. It does however provide a tooltip to read it in full.

Created attachment 194021 [details] problem libre office 24.2.3, there are 6 screenshots, but there is more, Polish language
All these examples are a consequence of very long text, IIANM. Sure, we can make the dialog larger but with severe impact on usability in particular on small screens. So please go with shorter labels and use tooltips if necessary. What I can do is to improve the arrangement of controls as done for the view tab.
pity :(
will it be patched to version 24.8?
