Screenshots of windows where options get cut off

Problem description: Options that don't fit into the provided window space of the Options window are inaccessible and the text is partially cut off along the bottom of the window frame.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice
2. Click Tools, then Options
3. Choose Print or General (those are the two where I can clearly see options getting cut off)

The options should be fully visible.

tested under Win7x64 with 4.2.0.4
options menus are not cut off
probably a Linux specific issue

are you reporting the bug against 4.2.1.1 or 4.2.0.4 or both?

see also Bug 73851
similar issue reproduced in Linux and Windows in 4.2.0.4 but in different Options dialogs than those of your screenshots.

I'm not sure why two versions were listed, but to clarify, the current installed version I have is 4.2.1.1 and that's what I'm reporting this bug from.

However, I've noticied this issue since I upgraded, so any version of 4.2.x that I had installed was affected.

Hi Jeff,

Please, what is the default font and what is the scale factor for the fonts you are using in Ubuntu?
Are you using the system font for the UI in LibreOffice (menu Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View)?

Best regards. JBF

Yes, I'm using the System Font for the UI.

Default font = Droid Sans, 9
Text scaling factor = 1.00


Fyi- my OS and LibreOffice version info has been updated, and the problem still persists. New version info below:

Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit)
LibreOffice Version: 4.2.3.3
LibreOffice Build ID: 420m0(Build:3)

Thank you for the screenshots. Did you try with another theme?

Best regards. JBF
Comment 9 Benny 2014-07-21 15:39:19 UTC
I am not sur about themes. Is it a feature of LibreOffice or Linux Mint
(Cinnamon in my case)?
Best regards

Both. You can change the icons set at system level and change the icons set used by LibreOffice (menu Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View).

I asked that because the checkboxes in your screencopies seems bigger as usual.

Please, do not not answer by email, write on the webpage instead.

Best regards. JBF

I have tested more Libreoffice settings, then some Linux Mint system settings, themes, icons sets etc. Nothing of this removes the problem in LO.
Comment 13 Adolfo Jayme Barrientos 2014-08-24 02:51:09 UTC
This seems solved in master (4.4). Can you try a daily build and confirm that the issue is solved?
Comment 14 bejectannt 2015-02-25 12:37:26 UTC
Avoiding duplicates:  Just as a note to people finding this bug, but not that other one ... there is also: bug 87876 ("Tools -> Options -> View tab crushed")
Comment 15 Adolfo Jayme Barrientos 2015-03-19 05:05:56 UTC
No feedback from OP, so closing this as WORKSFORME.
