Expert Configuration doesn't show OK/Cancel button

The  attached screenshot shows the problem.

1) Go toTools – Options – LibreOffice – Advanced – Open Expert Configuration
 
2) search for the string 'prettyprinting' (without quotes).  You will be presented with /org.openoffice.Office.Common/Save/Document PrettyPrinting 

3) Toggle the value from 'false' to 'true', for example.  

4) Close the window.  

5) Repeat (1) and (2) above to verify if the new value is saved.  

6) Note that new changes are NOT saved.



I think there is a ok/cancel button which gets hidden the bottom panel 'gnome-panel'.  

This bug is similar to the other recently closed bug https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130275
Comment 1 Jambunathan K 2020-12-31 07:49:35 UTC
The issue is seen with

    LibreOfficeDev_7.2.0.0.alpha0_Linux_x86-64_deb  master~2020-12-30_12.52.30_LibreOfficeDev_7.2.0.0.alpha0_Linux_x86-64_deb.tar.gz.

I am sure that this bug is an OLD one.  IIRC, I have seen this in stable LibreOffice 7.0 builds.

In the attached screenshot, you can see that I have moved the bottom panel of the 'gnome-panel' to the right to see if it makes difference. 

I still see that the form is "overflowing" the laptop display, and there is NO ok/cancel button

I am on a Dell laptop.

Comment 6 Caolán McNamara 2021-01-18 11:58:07 UTC
So it looks like that simply the dialog is too tall for whatever the resolution is and the "true" gtk widgets are taller than the vcl widgets rendered to look like gtk so it it not taller than it was
