Description Gordo 2015-04-04 14:43:35 UTC
1. New Text Document.
2. Insert -> Image.
3. Click on image in document.
Result:
Object Information in Status Bar is blank.  Double clicking there does not bring up the Image dialogue.

4. Left click on image and left click again.
Result:
Overlapping numbers appear and disappear in Object Information in Status Bar.

5. Left click on image and left click again and hold briefly before releasing.
Result:
Overlapping numbers appear in Object Information in Status Bar.  Double clicking there does not bring up the Image dialogue.

The same happens with Formulas.

6. Insert -> Text Box.
7. Left click hold and drag Text Box in document.
Result:
Overlapping numbers appear and disappear in Object Information in Status Bar.
8. Resize Text Box.
Result:
Overlapping numbers appear and disappear in Object Information in Status Bar.

The same happens with Frames.

The overlapping happens when the window is not maximized.  Also on a small second monitor, the overlapping happens when the window is maximized.

Reproducible with LO 4.4.1.2, Win 8.1
Comment 2 Matthew Francis 2015-04-05 11:51:16 UTC
The behaviour in question changed across the two commits below.
After (1), the statusbar area at issue becomes too small and the contents are jumbled together
After (2), the content no longer displays except briefly when the image is clicked, and double clicking the area does nothing.

The change in behaviour seems to have been deliberate according to the referenced bug, but clearly there's still an inconsistency in what's left.
