Created attachment 101119 [details] print screen Problem description: when trying to change paragraph background the mate panels are dissappearing. i'm ussing linux mint 13 (maya) x64 (mate) on lenovo thinkpad x200. Steps to reproduce: 1. select any text 2. press colour changing button (see cursor position from printscreen) Current behavior: no visible panel but, if i click on it's position, the menu appears. i guess the panels are just invisible but still working. in order to make them appear again i need to reboot the system. the mate panels are not disappearing in any other circumstances. Expected behavior: need panels not to disappear Operating System: Ubuntu Version: 4.2.4.2 release
Cannot reproduce with Linux Mint 13, Mate Panel 1.6.1 and LibO 4.2.4. What version of the mate panel do you use? You can find out by right-clicking on it and selecting 'About Panels'.

Hi Mihai, This seems to be a bug with the mate desktop environment and not libreoffice and i think you should take it up with the linux mint and/or mate desktop teams. I have had similar issues with mate as it is not as well supported by other applications as i had hoped it would be. Enabling the linux mint backports repository to upgrade mate to 1.6.1 may solve your issue but may cause other issues. I would recommend that you to upgrade to linux mint 17, as it has mate 1.8, and its more likely that if you find problems there, the linux mint and mate desktop teams would be more likely to look into the issue. @jmadero, @jorendc: what is your opinion of this?
ok, I'll try that thanks În Luni, 16 Iunie 2014 16:47:43, "bugzilla-daemon@freedesktop.org" <bugzilla-daemon@freedesktop.org> a scris: > > > >Jay Philips changed bug 80060 > >What >Removed >Added >Status NEEDINFO RESOLVED >Resolution --- NOTOURBUG >CC jmadero.dev@gmail.com, jorendc@libreoffice.org >Comment # 5 on bug 80060 from Jay Philips >Hi Mihai, This seems to be a bug with the mate desktop environment and not libreoffice and i think you should take it up with the linux mint and/or mate desktop teams.

I've installed mint 17. things got worse: mate panels are disappearing (but still working in invisible "mode") when launching libreoffice. one mention: I use ppa for LibreOffice deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu precise main what now?

Hi Mihai, I have mint 17 mate running on my laptop and i tried to reproduce the same issue but couldnt. Using the PPA is fine. Is this happening on a fresh installation of linux mint 17 without you adding multiple panels or customizing the panels? Is it possible that the issue maybe caused by you graphics card driver. Are you using the open source or proprietary graphics card and which graphics card is it? Please dont reply to these message by email as it adds unnecessary information into the system. Please click on the bug number link provided in the email and you will be taken to this bugzilla page, where you can add your comment and attachments.
using Mint 17 x64, fresh install on a Lenovo Thinkpad x200 with an Intel Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2A42] and a generic i915 driver. i've created an extra top panel without modifying it's standard settings. removed libreoffice from ppa and installed from official repository. now the panels are disappearing when i try to change font colour / underlining colour / background colour, and it's happening only when i open the list to select another colour. things are going back to normal by restarting X.org (Ctrl + Alt + Backspace) or by rebooting the system.
i found the cause: everything is working fine by disabling composition
