When I right-click on the Bibliography and choose Edit Index or Table of Contents > Entries, the Insert, Remove and Tab Stop buttons are missing when the Preview box is checked. If you uncheck the Preview box, then the buttons appear. Feel free to view the following attachments:

Hi Ed,

Thanks for the report.
I do not have the problem in 5.0.5.2 or 5.1.0.3 on Ubuntu 32 bits, so I can't confirm the problem.

Dear Cor Nouws,

Thank you for your prompt reply.
I am actually using Openbox on top of Debian, latest versions of both.
Linux 3.16.0-4-586 on i686

Please feel to ask (anyone else too) for more details, and I'll be happy to contribute.
Thank you again.

No problem here.

64-bit, KDE Plasma 5
Build ID: 5.1.0.3 Arch Linux build-1
CPU Threads: 8; OS Version: Linux 4.4; UI Render: default; 
Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI.UTF-8)

I tend to close this one as NotOurBug..
But maybe there is something special in the combination with OpenBox that could be resolved on our side?

Maybe _rene_ has clue here?
Comment 5 ed.silkworth 2016-03-02 20:47:00 UTC
I wonder if it's because I am using LibreOffice Fresh...

Cor and me just tested it with Fresh.

Oh okay, hmmm.....
Comment 8 ed.silkworth 2016-03-02 21:04:50 UTC
Maybe I was missing a library package during the installation.

...I am a bit new to Linux and don't know what to look for to help pinpoint issues, but I have noticed that programs in general do install even though some packages may be missing. Is there way a cross-references packages to pinpoint any missing? no clue how much that would involve or if it would be productive, but I'll be happy to provide any details (e.g., package lists)

Thanks again~~

Try launching it from the terminal with these different commands:
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen libreoffice
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk libreoffice
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 libreoffice

Do you observe something interesting regarding the dialog?
Comment 10 ed.silkworth 2016-03-02 21:57:18 UTC
Quick note:
I had to append 5.1 or else the terminal couldn't find the "libreoffice" command, but anyways

SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen libreoffice5.1 worked fine!
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk libreoffice5.1 had dialog issue
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3 libreoffice5.1 had dialog issue

Hello Ed, *,
thank you very much for reporting this bug :) I cannot - however - confirm it with

OS: Debian Testing AMD64
DM: XFCE 4.12
LO: Version: 5.1.6.2
Build-ID: 07ac168c60a517dba0f0d7bc7540f5afa45f0909
CPU-Threads: 4; BS-Version: Linux 4.5; UI-Render: Standard; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); Calc: group
(parallel installed, following the instructions from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/Linux)

LO: Version: 5.2.5.1
Build-ID: 1:5.2.5-2
CPU-Threads: 4; BS-Version: Linux 4.5; UI-Render: Standard; VCL: gtk3; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); Calc: group

Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); Calc: group
(also parallel installed)

, sorry ... :(Just out of curiosity: Have you discovered this bug with Debian's version of LO or with ours? If it was with Debian's, it would be better to report it to http://bugs.debian.org/ instead of here ... ;)
Sorry for the inconvenience
Thomas.

all us haven't been able to confirm the problem. So must be something odd local maybe? Close as WorksForMe at the moment anyway.
