Description:
What happened?
With e.g. a line shape selected, if trying to change e.g. the fill color of that line, the cursor remains a "grab hand" when moving over the "color selection box". If pressing the "color selection box", the element behind the "properties window" is selected and the properties window changes to the properties window for the newly selected element.

NOTE: I am using a non-english version of LibreOffice, so I am not sure if all translates well here.

What I expect to happen..
if hovering over the properties window, "collision" with shapes is not possible.

NOTE: I am not sure if OpenGL is enabled, but under "Extra -> Opties... -> LibreOffice -> Beeld" I saw that a checkbox to use hardware acceleration for displaying images was checked. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create some shapes
2. Zoom in (make sure that one or more shapes are behind the properties window
3. Try to edit a property via the properties window for the selected shape.

Actual Results:
See the description.

Expected Results:
See the description.


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

CONFIRMED on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and LibreOffice 6.4.7.2

Version: 6.4.7.2
Build ID: 639b8ac485750d5696d7590a72ef1b496725cfb5
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.3; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; 
Locale: en-IN (en_IN); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

Properties bar on RHS gives correct results but when right-clicking on the shape and going to 'edit style', the changes don't occur on the selected shape. eg I also used a line and tried to change its color, it didn't change by the 2nd method.
