[Bug 889212] [NEW] LibreOffice window resize corruption in Xubuntu

 

Public bug reported:

In Xubuntu 11.10 - using nVidia drivers [nvidia-current 280.13-0ubuntu6] - dual-screens. [not sure if this is a factor]
LibreOffice version Installed: 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2

LibreOffice seems to not like being resized from the top or left sides of the window [or the top-left or bottom-right corners]. 
If I resize from the bottom or right sides, it works fine and the window redraws normally [if a bit slow and klunky]. If I resize from the left or top sides/corners, the window does not redraw properly. It make it look as if the part you resized down has just disappeared, so for instance you can no longer see the title-bar or menu-bar if you resize down from the top. If you resize up or out from the top/left edges, it still doesn't redraw properly, and the added window space is filled with what appears to be corrupted desktop image data.

Once the window is corrupted, alt-dragging the window doesn't help, but
if you maximize then unmaximize the window [say from the task-bar] it
then redraws properly.

I've run across no other programs which exhibit this issue, only
LibreOffice.
