Description jose.velez 2021-11-19 14:28:03 UTC 
If you click in a drop-down list of any toolbar, the cursor disappear and you can't get the cursor left-clicking in the document.

If you make a right-click in the document the cursor appears again.

Step to reproduce the problem:

1 - Open libreoffice
2 - Click on the drop-down list to select a paragraph style (for example title).
3 - Click on the drop-down list again to select other paragraph style (for example heading).
4 - The cursor disappear.
5 - Right-click in the document to get the cursor again.

Tested in kubuntu 21.10 and in current Neon (on Ubuntu 20.04).
