Public bug reported: Column selection in a Calc spreadsheet is very slow under gtk3.
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the attached ODS file with LibreOffice Calc in gtk3 mode. ("Help > About LibreOffice" should show "VCL: gtk3". If not, "export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3" and start libreoffice from terminal) 2. Try to select the entire columns A:G. --> The selection is very slow. 3. Open the ODS file in "gen" mode, then select columns A:G. ("export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen" and start libreoffice from terminal) --> The selection is fast. This bug was initially reported on the LibreOffice bugzilla, but it is suspected to be specific to Ubuntu 18.04 and gtk3, so I raise this issue here. https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129915 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: libreoffice-core 1:6.0.7-0ubuntu0.18.04.10 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.0.0-37.40~18.04.1-generic 5.0.21 Uname: Linux 5.0.0-37-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.9 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Sun Jan 12 18:52:45 2020 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin InstallationDate: Installed on 2019-12-14 (28 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20190805) SourcePackage: libreoffice UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug bionic ** Attachment added: "Test ods file." https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1859325/+attachment/5319399/+files/selection.ods -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1859325 Title: Column selection in LibreOffice Calc is very slow with GTK3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1859325/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
