Description uls6502 2011-06-24 08:00:26 UTC
How to reproduce:
1) Open a document, preferably in read-only mode (so it will be easier).
2) Turn on "smooth scrolling".
3) Use Up and Down keys to scroll the text.

You will see:
Some vertical lines of pixels are duplicated or missing, damaging the text.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1

To keep this message short, more infos are available @ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/NeedinfoClosure#Statement

Looks like video driver problem. Not reproducible in 3.6.1 on Fedora 64 bit
(Was reproducible with 3.2.1 on Mandriva with AMD video in my case)
Changing to WFM

Very old bug inherited from OOo. 

[Reproducible] with Server Installation of "LibreOffice 3.6.2.1 rc  German UI/ German Locale [Build-ID:  ba822cc] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) 

My PC
64 bit AMD Phenom II X4 955 Processor 3.2 GHz, 4GB RAM, 
Graphic Card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 430, Monitor HANNS-G HL225DBB 1920 x 1080 

I think we should already have a bug where I also have been involved, but I can't find it. Can someone help to find it (if it exists)?

@sasha:
Please do not modify Status to WORKSFORME only because you were not able to reproduce a bug with a single quick test. Please use similar criteria to those you find on <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#status>, what means although intensive attempts it has been impossible to reproduce the bug.

thx, I think "Bug 43498 - gtk3 VCL plugin is badly broken (copy/paste fails, graphical corruption on scrolling)" is the one I remembered. That one might be related, but I have no idea what a "gtk3 VCL" might be.

And Strange, I tested some different versions and was not able to reproduce with OOo 1.1.5, LibO 3.3.3, 3.4.5, 3.5.1. So I think we should return to user's Version.

I seems this one is a little tricky

Hi,

Any progress or have you tried with recent versions of LibreOffice?

Best regards,
Zeki

NEEDINFO as of Comment 11.

Please let us know if this still happens with LO 4.3RC1 http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/

Which OS is this happening on?

Where is "smooth scrolling" activated exactly?

Since one of the two bugs linked under "See Also" is closed as "not reproducible" and so far no one has been able to reproduce this, setting to worksforme.

Should this persist for anybody, make sure to reopen and provide a screencast illustrating the issue happening. Thanks :)

You see in the attached screenshot that is Windows

> Where is "smooth scrolling" activated exactly?

Googled it for you: https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/View_1#Smooth_scroll

> Since one of the two bugs linked under "See Also" is closed as "not

That is not a reason to close things. Sigh.

The original poster has never been heard from. 
Some useful information and postings are here, rather than invalid, as a little QA housekeeping setting resolved duplicate of active issue bug 58358
