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

Sorry. I don't understand how this site works.

I really thought i had ansered before. I don't know what happened. May be a connection failure.

I did start in safe mode. with same results: menu overlaps menubar.

Also tested Libre Office 7.0 RC

I mostly use MX Linux 19.2 
XFCE 4.14 as Desktop Environment.

I have tested in different devices and with live usb os, so the user profile should not be relevant, in my undertanding.

I took a screenshot wiich i attached in a previous post

The screenshot looks like the gtk3 version, in which case it's a duplicate of Bug 113713.

Indeed, it is the same.
Sorry I had not found it before.

It's sad to see this can not be solved, it seems.
Blame GTK3, but some other apps like GIMP do work well on this, and they also use GTK3.

No. GIMP use gtk2 not gtk3. Other gtk3 apps like Inkscape 1.0 or Eclipse do have the same issue.
