Created attachment 180474 [details] Impress window with bug manifesting I'm working on a presentation. After switching back and forth a bit between slides, and with the sidebar open (for animations I think), I click the top-right x button, which should close the sidebar. But - while it disappears, white empty placeholder space somehow remains. Pressing the sidebar choice buttons and pressing x again did not help. Neither does resizing, changing the zoom level, or switching from Normal to another view. Build info: Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: d9b33ed6644203141fdb0776c291425c2bc9f5ac CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.10; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-IL (en_IL); UI: en-US
I have already experienced this bug in the past, but it's very rare. I also could not produce steps that always cause the bug. This is why I've never reported it. Today I did a lot of testing with the Animations sidebar using Impress 7.4 but could not reproduce this bug. Can you provide a series of steps that are certain to cause this issue?
(In reply to Rafael Lima from comment #1) > Can you provide a series of steps that are certain to cause this issue? I wish I could. When I shut down LO and restart it, I can't reproduce.
Dear Eyal Rozenberg, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b.

Let's see if making this block Sidebar will get any attention. If not - we'll just mark it as WORKSFORME for lack of reproducibility.
