Description Craig Denman 2013-03-09 16:50:09 UTC
Drop-down menus overlap as the user moves to adjacent menus.  Drop-down menus are also transparent making selection difficult.

Thank you for your bug report. What’s your operating system and desktop environment, please? It’d be good if you can attach an screenshot as well.

Ubuntu Raring 13.04 kernel 3.8.0-11 SMP x86_64

Hi. I do not experience this issue using Ubuntu 12.04. However, it might be specific to the later release of Ubuntu.

Version: Version 4.0.2.1 (Build ID: 7e5467ff8f30d821f4fbf69cb2769163eb64c2c)

Platform: Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS x64

I have never once seen this before, looks quite bad. I'm relatively sure it's not our bug but, going to add Bjoern to this one as he's our Canonical expert.

Bjoern - suggestions about this one, pictures clearly show something is going on.

The drop-down menus now have a charcoal background and work well.  Previously, the menus were transparent and as you went from one to the next adjacent menu the last menu persisted messing up the new menu.

Hmm, this looks more like a graphics driver issue. I would suggest reporting it on launchpad and make sure that it is marked not only as "affecting" LibreOffice, but also the X11 driver you are using.
