Comment 1 sesafo9664 2024-01-14 05:51:03 UTC
before the bug happened, I was changing the ui to single toolbar. after i was done, i started adjusting the scale below the toolbar. however, after that writer stopped responding to touchpad scrolling. other libreoffice are still working fine.

here is the system info:

just learned from my sister that the issue was since a week. scrolling is sometimes working, sometimes not. other apps are working as usual.

Please test in safe mode, Menu/Help/Restart in Safe Mode

I checked with safe mode: reset to facatory settings with all the checkboxes checked. it didn't worked for some reason. (btw: i used temp mail for creating the issue, and promptly forgot its password; so i have to reply from a new account)

Test repairing the installation, on the system 'Add and remove programs'

i downloaded libreoffice again from its website. gone to windows app setting, clicked on modify, after which i tried both removing libreoffice and repairing it. neither worked.

Does this happen with any LibreOffice application?

just with libreoffice writer. all other libreoffice apps and libreoffice main app (where all the previous document are shown) work fine.

Maybe there is some parameter in the touchpad driver, that affects.

Just in case, test modifying Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice/View - Graphics output, deactivating/modifying skia options.

For what it's worth, not reproduced on Linux with a Tuxedo N230WU touchpad.

Can you share which hardware you use? It could matter here.
Does it only happen after switching to the single toolbar UI? And what do you mean by "adjusting the scale below the toolbar"?

my hardware specs:

Processor	AMD Ryzen 5 5500U with Radeon Graphics            2.10 GHz
Installed RAM	8.00 GB (5.85 GB usable)
System type	64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

no, it started before i switched to single toolbar. by scale i meant the thing with all its number just below toolbar. however, changing the "scale" is not the cause of this bug.

new info about the bug: i am unable to scroll with a touchpad in a single page doc. however, in a doc with multiple pages, when i try scrolling it jumps to the next or previous page. should i create a recording of this bug and post it here?

What is your Windows setting in Control Panel > Mouse Properties > Wheel > Vertical Scrolling? Are you using "One screen at a time"? You might be seeing bug 42794.
