In LO 6.4.5.2 and 6.4.6.2 (UbuntuStudio), whenever I open one of my spread
sheets, made years' ago but in weekly use, I find that the font name and the
font size is slightly corrupted in the formatting toolbar.
The size should be 10 but it looks like both 20 and 10 written in the same
space at same time. Equally the font name should be Liberation Sans but it too
looks sometimes like a combination of two names. This is less common that the
font size corruption.
If I highlight a cell and click the font size dropdown, the correct size is
clearly displayed. If I then select another cell, instead of displaying 10 it
looks like a mix of 10 and 12 (not 20 and 10 as when first opened) until I
again click on the dropdown.
If I close the formatting bar and reopen it, the corruption is back.
Hi Philip,
Exactly the same issue here but not only in Calc but also in Writer, Impress
and Draw. No old documents needed to reproduce it. Just open any of these
modules, type in some characters so that you have at least two different fonts
and two different font sizes. Then point the cursor in the text to the
different fonts and font sizes and that's it.
I am currently using Xubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu Studio 20.04 and Ubuntu Budgie
20.04. I downloaded LO 6.3.6.2, LO 6.4.6.2 and LO 7.0.1.2 from libreoffice.org
and installed them in an external hard drive so that I can access these
installations from any distro. The issue only occurs when running these
installations of LO 6.3 or LO 6.4 from Ubuntu Studio; it does never happen with
LO 7.0 (regardless of the distro) and it also never happens when running any of
these same three installations of LO from Xubuntu or from Ubuntu Budgie.
Thanks for your confirmation, JPS. I can confirm that I get the effect in
Writer too. I hadn't noticed it before but you're quite right. Interesting
that you get the poor display only in UbuntuStudio and even using downloads of
LO direct from libreoffice.org.
I made a fresh, clean installation of UbuntuStudio 20.04.1 at the beginning of
August and my experience with it so far is that it is the worst since I started
with this distro back in 14.04. I have some applications that take 32 seconds
to start up regardless of whether it is the first start or an n'th start since
bootup. I had xscreensaver which wouldn't kick in until I disabled the startup
script that came with the distro. Some applications do start normally but some
are always slow and some of these slow ones were part of the distribution and
not something I installed later.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact announced by UbuntuStudio that their
dev's were pretty well all working with Kubuntu and the KDE Plasma desktop.
20.04 was their last planned release with the XFCE desktop.
Anyway, it does not appear to be a subject for this discussion group and would
be more correctly dealt with on the Ubuntu forums.
Thanks and best regards,
Philip
