Description MK 2024-01-24 11:57:04 UTC
when selecting text or cells with mouse it lags and is difficult to see what is being selected

This sounds very similar to tdf#155266 which has a fix. The fix for that bug should be included in LibreOffice 7.6.5 and 24.2 (both are planned to be released in February 2024).

In the meantime, a tester found a possible workaround: enable LibreOffice's Skia/Metal rendering option.

To enable Skia/Metal rendering, do the following steps:

1. Open the Options dialog by selecting the LibreOffice > Preferences menu
2. Select LibreOffice > View in the left panel
3. In the right panel, check the "Use Skia for all rendering" and uncheck "Force Skia software rendering" checkboxes as shown in the following screen snapshot:

4. Press the "OK" button and restart if prompted

Is there any improvement if you enable Skia/Metal rendering?

Glad to hear that the workaround works for you.

I'll mark this bug as a duplicate of tdf#155226.
