Description: In slideshow mode, when we go to the next slide, horizontal bands flicker across the screen. Mostly only one band appears, near the top of the screen. The band disappears in a fraction of a second. The band only appears when the slide transition is happening. Such bands do NOT appear when I press the DownArrow key to animate the slide (e.g. when a numbered list is animated by 1st level paragraph). These bands have approximately 1" height, and they span the full width of the screen. They are always filled with a fixed black-and-white geometric pattern that looks like a QR bar code pattern. This problem occurs in both the latest stable version of LibreOffice (7.2.0.4) and the latest Alpha nightly (7.3.0.0). This is a highly annoying problem: It creates a horrible impression of the presenter! Steps to Reproduce: 1.Make any presentation in slide show mode. 2.Press downArrow to progress through the presentation. 3. Actual Results: A band flickers during slide transition moment, and disappears in a fraction of a second. Expected Results: The band must not appear. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: [Information automatically included from LibreOffice] Locale: en-US Module: PresentationDocument OS: Windows 10 Home (64 bit)
BTW I am using an Acer Aspire A315-53 laptop, with 12 GB RAM Processor: i3-8130U CPU @ 2.20GHz, 2208 Mhz Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 12.0 GB Available Physical Memory 6.18 GB Total Virtual Memory 13.7 GB Available Virtual Memory 6.75 GB So I guess this problem is not due to a shortage of system resources.
