Description Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2022-11-29 16:18:34 UTC
When opening Options > LibreOffice > Application Colors, there is a significant delay displaying the settings (when compared to other parts of the Options dialog).

If current master is run from the command line on Ubuntu 20.04, dozens of Gtk-CRITICAL errors GLib-GObject-WARNINGs are displayed, of the type:

(soffice:199086): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: 16:21:38.842: invalid cast from 'GtkImage' to 'GtkLabel'
(soffice:199086): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 16:21:38.842: gtk_label_set_label: assertion 'GTK_IS_LABEL (label)' failed

However, the issue is also in Windows, so unlikely related.

Happens in:

Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha1+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 7830ecc2e4e5dd264517c6554078fa807ff1fceb
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Display was already slow in:

Version: 6.3.6.2

But also with gen VCL:

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce this.
Comment 2 Julien Nabet 2022-11-30 13:10:26 UTC
Caolán: I think you might be interested in this one considering the gtk traces provided by Stéphane.

Comment 7 Caolán McNamara 2022-12-07 23:00:43 UTC
Its hard to call a perf issue "fixed", so they are my least favourite topics, but I find it pretty reasonable now though.
Comment 8 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2022-12-08 13:32:41 UTC
Thanks Caolán. Even though it is not instant like other tabs, it is not slow enough to be cumbersome anymore, and is on par with how Language Settings > Languages lags a bit.
