[Bug 749986] Re: Resizing LO window from bottom right brings up pop-up and undesirable effects

 

We try to make the bug description as simple as possible, less is more,
The first 10 lines in the description of this bug report are not really
of any use for the developers, when I edited description it started with
the steps to reproduce the problem and nothing I believe it more
efficient for developers to see the bug themselves.

** Description changed:

- 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
-         500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty-updates/main i386 Packages
-         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
-      1:3.3.2-1ubuntu4 0
-         500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages
+ Ubuntu 11.10
+ libreoffice 1:3.4.3-3ubuntu2
  
  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. A screenshot of this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/749986/+attachment/2078779/+files/Libreoffice_resize-grip.png
  
  WORKAROUND: Resize using the top left and right corners or ALT+F8 and
  use the keyboard.
  
  WORKAROUND: create a .gtkrc-2.0__libreoffice file in your home
  directory, with the following content:
  
  style "default-style"
  {
-   GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0
-   GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0
+   GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0
+   GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0
  }
  
  class "GtkWidget" style "default-style"
  
  and then launch libreoffice writer (or another component) with the command:
  GTK2_RC_FILES=.gtkrc-2.0__libreoffice libreoffice -writer
  
  WORKAROUND: Make sure the black arrow pointing down and right shows up,
  then resize is successful.
