Description: After upgrading to 7.6.4.1. on Mac OS 12.6.8m selecting text with the mouse no longer highlights the text. Additionally, the cursor often appears in multiple locations (although it is really only in one). Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open existing Write document 2.Scroll down 3.Click and hold the mouse button as to highlight text. Actual Results: Text does not appear to be selected, even though it often is. Expected Results: For the cursor to highlight the text.

Reproduced: Version: 7.6.4.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: e19e193f88cd6c0525a17fb7a176ed8e6a3e2aa1 CPU threads: 2; OS: Mac OS X 13.2.1; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: osx Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Same with "use Skia for all rendering" turned off (i.e. with "UI render: default"). Even after releasing the mouse button, the broken trail of small highlight chunks and cursors continues.
Created attachment 191619 [details] screenshot of lack of highlight, trail in its place Note that the text is indeed highlighted, as pressing Backspace removes it. It's the visual feedback that's badly broken.
Also in 7.5.9: Version: 7.5.9.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: cdeefe45c17511d326101eed8008ac4092f278a9 CPU threads: 2; OS: Mac OS X 13.2.1; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Not in 7.3.3: Version: 7.3.3.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: d1d0ea68f081ee2800a922cac8f79445e4603348 CPU threads: 2; OS: Mac OS X 10.16; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded -> regression
I don't reproduce Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 40617d867346956588ac023511f31210107217f4 CPU threads: 8; OS: macOS 13.6.3; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded It sounds like a variant of bug 155266, IMHO. Reverting to 7.6.3 should solve the issue until the release of 7.6.5
The very similar bug 153306 (for Skia/Vulkan) is fixed in 24.2.3. mmclean, please test 24.2.3 and report back if the issue is resolved for you too, in which case we could mark as a duplicate (although earliest version affected does not match). (I don't have the same macOS installation as I had in comment 1 so can't test again reliably.)
Unable to reproduce Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (AARCH64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 92815f3a464b447898ecf52492247335228e4a72 CPU threads: 12; OS: macOS 14.4.1; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
Tested on Catalina.

Thanks everyone!
