Te zoom slider sowhn at the right end of the status bar shows a small circle showing the present zoom level. This circle moved left or right when you changed zoom level. In 5.1.0.1 instead, when you change zoom the circle moves but the previous one remains visible, and after some clicks you have the slider line covered by a multitude of partially overlapping circles, a real mess.
Hi @Andy, seems another OpenGL issue, for me disabling it in Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice/View - Use OpenGL for all rendering, solves the problem.
Thanks for the hint, but if it is a problem making openGL work with such a simple thing, that has worked for years, why use it then??
