Hi I have dell inspiron laptop and I'm using gnome ubuntu 14.04 LTS fallback with matacity 64bit, composting is on for docky. While using the standard LibreOffice which came with the disto, Everytime I use the Font colour highlighting feature in Impress or any of the three highlighting features in Writer and Calc and then change the colour it makes the panels on my desktop and Docky disapear. My workaround to restore the dock/panel is to Alt+Ctrl+Del twice and then everything re-appears, I then cancel the logout popup window.
I have a friend I helped install a similar fallback with matacity system using the normal ubuntu 14.04 LTS distro (not gnome) 64bit, again composting is on for Docky, different type of laptop with the same issues. Both my friend and I do a lot of highlighting in our docs and its so annoying for us we are thinking of replacing LibreOffice with OpenOffice, at the same time we would rather LibreOffice if it could be fixed somehow. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1207229 Title: highlight background of calc cell hides/crashes unity-2D dock and gnome panel Status in Compiz: Invalid Status in Unity: Invalid Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: When highlighting a cell in localc, using current selected background color is fine, but altering the selection to another color has recently (some time in the last 2 days) resulted in my unity-2D panel closing down.
