SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. remove from Synaptic libreoffice.gtk (any version) 2. open LibreOffice 3. LO layout is without menu, and a general graphical "madness" OBSERVED RESULT as I have said: a very wrong layout EXPECTED RESULT a normal, even less beautiful, layout and the possibility to use correctly autokey (that's why I disable libreoffice-gtk) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Neon 5.18 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.18 KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have to disable gtk so that I can use autokey in LibreOffice. So far it worked. With tha last update all is gone wrong.
Operating System: KDE neon 5.18 KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.67.0 Qt Version: 5.13.2 Kernel Version: 5.3.0-28-generic OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 2 × Intel® Core™ i3-7100 CPU @ 3.90GHz Memory: 7,7 GiB of RAM
I have the same issue, except that removing libreoffice-gtk(2,3, etc.) doesn't change anything: menus are still not available. (I'm on KDE Neon, with Plasma 5.18)
Created attachment 125974 [details] Fresh LibreOffice Profile with no menubar even with the global menu activated The bug seems related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417584 I attach a screenshot showing the observed behavior on a fresh LibreOffice profile.
Created attachment 125975 [details] nly One of the two lines of tab of the window Modify Style of LibreOffice is shown
Somehow solved, as said here : https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=164571&p=428369#p428369
Not the same bug thought! Because I don’t have Autokey installed and I have libreoffice-gtk2 and libreoffice-gtk3 installed. Still the interface looks like attached screenshots.
Do you have libreoffice-kde (integration) as well? If so, try to disable it.
You are right! Removing libreoffice-kde solves the bug! Unfortunately, it also removes some very useful KDE/LibreOffice integration such as the file picker (Gtk file picker is horrendous!)
horrendous, you say... I don't know... :) With gtk enabled LO layout is better than without gtk- (and kde-) integration. But as Latins said "de gustibus non est disputandum" :)
In my case, the bug with window layouts shifted upwards beyond the window border is exhibited when libreoffice-kde5 is not installed and installing libreoffice-kde5 fixes it. I use KDE neon with Plasma 5.18.0 and LibreOffice 6.3.4.2.
Alexander, I am curious, are you sure you have libreoffice-kde5 installed on KDE Neon? Because, I am also using KDE Neon, and the libreoffice-kde5 package is not available on my computer. I only have libreoffice-kde and libreoffice-kde4 packages.
This is a bug in LibreOffice, not in any KDE software. The version of LibreOffice shipped in Neon is quite old; newer versions significantly improve the KDE integration.
(In reply to Beurt from comment #11) libreoffice-kde5 is available from ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-6-3.
