Created attachment 123957 [details] It looks empty, but you can see the content of the selected cell in formatting window Today the file opened correctly, but then I updated to fresh. An .ods file, saved as such from an .xls, created originally by Econet (financial software) on another machine (list of unpaid bills with reference numbers and bank accounts etc). The cells look empty, except for the cells I have myself written with LibreOffice, on several days. So the conversion from the .xls is the problem - I tried with the original .xls, and the cells look empty. But the info is there all the time. When you select a cell, you can see the content, just not in the cell but on the formatting window. I tried changing the font color and size, didn't help. Background color makes no difference, editing the content of the cell by just adding something there, nope. Luckily I was able to get the data I needed to pay the bills. I just tried opening another .xls file (mailed to me by a friend, don't know what software it was created with)), and it opened normally. Econet is old version, probably saves in old .xls format. At work I use Still version of LibreOffice, and there have been no problems with files. Attached edited version of the file. Maybe not the biggest problem, but still... Best regards, Tapani K

Have you tested the options for the graphics card in Menu/Tools/LibreOffice/View? Disabling the OpenGL
Tapsa: you did not mention the exact version of LibreOffice you are using. Set to NEEDINFO. Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided more information (OpenGL setting & version).
The version is 5.1.1.3
(In reply to Tapani Kuusisto from comment #5) > The version is 5.1.1.3 ..and the OpenGL setting is? Please test with 5.1.2 as well.
Tried with 5.1.2, but it crashes libreoffice. After restart and recovering the files, I got fatal error: SEH Exception: ACCESS VIOLATION. OpenGL version 6.14.10.13399

If it is disabled, it says "GL is currently disabled" underneath the options.
Ok. OpenGL is enabled for all rendering.
(In reply to Tapani Kuusisto from comment #9) > Ok. > OpenGL is enabled for all rendering. And if you disable it and restart, does the problem go away?
That's the trick, thank you!

Tapani - thanks for the report; most odd; Marco can you append to your list of things to poke at ? =) Thanks.
I get a crash even when loading that document. Debugging and fixing.
Seems that the document wants to use the font "MS Sans Serif" which is a non-scalable font, and apparently the code for using such is currently broken, or the fallback to some suitable scalable font instead is broken.
Just avoiding the glyph caching for non-TrueType fonts is not good enough, the text still does not show up.
I guess the thing to do here is simply to unconditionally map MS Sans Serif to Microsoft Sans Serif, which is supposed to be metric compatible, and present on all Windowses since XP anyway. Will try.

Actually, for me LO crashes even...
Also see bug #97249 and bug #98989. But those were for the non-OpenGL case, I think.
Turned out nothing was actually needed in the master branch, but for the 5.1 branch a patch is awaiting in gerrit: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/24951/

Resolving this as fixed now, reopen if necessary. (But, as always, don't reopen unless it *is* exactly the same symptoms that still appear. Prefer to file a new bug.)
