While this problem affected Ubuntu 11.04 it became worse with version
Ubuntu 11.10. under Unity.  In Ubuntu 11.04 if you missed the first time
and brought up the menu you could keep trying and eventually get
Libreoffice to resize.  You can still do this if you use Gnome's menu
option rather than Unity.  However, with 11.10 if you miss and bring up
the menu resizing fails for any and every window and remains that way
until you close the Libreoffice window that had the problem.

This is consistent and happens this way every time when using Unity and
you miss and bring up the file menu when trying to resize a Libreoffice
window from the bottom right.

The fix from comment #13 doesn't resolve the issue on my machine.

Title:
  Resizing LO window from bottom right brings up pop-up and undesirable
  effects

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: libreoffice

  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc
  libreoffice-calc:
    Installed: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
    Candidate: 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 0

  3) What is expected to happen is one may resize a LibreOffice window
  from the bottom right by putting the mouse icon to the bottom right of
  the window, click and hold, and move the window size as desired.

  4) What happens instead is if the white arrow pointing down and to the
  right, clicking will bring up the File Menu, as well undesirable
  affects (ex. the whole sheet is highlighted but clicking inside does
  not unhighlight, can no longer resize). Other corners and sides works
  fine for resizing the window.

  WORKAROUND: Make sure the black arrow pointing down and right shows
  up, then resize is successful.
