Description auxsvr 2011-10-25 16:58:37 UTC
Version:           4.7.2 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30047 has all the details, especially comment 16. In summary, opening the attached odt file and pointing over the footnotes from 5 downwards results in a too long and corrupted tooltip.  According to comment 17 by Michel Dänzer, it is up to kwin to fix this.

In the case of the too large menu (kparts-plugin mimetypes), the menu doesn't appear at all, even though interaction with it is possible. The aforementioned menu without compositing fills the entire screen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Open the aforementioned odt file and point over the footnote symbols with compositing enabled.

Actual Results:  
The tooltip appears corrupted.

Expected Results:  
The tooltip appears legible.

The card is a radeon 9600xt.
glxinfo -l | grep -i GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE
GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 2048

The resolution when this occurred was 1600x900.
