screenshot of writer under KDE

I recently tried LibreOffice 7.1.1 on KDE on my debian testing box.
It seems there is an issue with the toolbars: they appear dark on the left and light on the right (see screenshot).
It seems something is wrong.

Comment 2 Michael Weghorn 2021-03-16 09:27:24 UTC
Can't reproduce on Debian testing. Some questions:

1) Does this also happen with a fresh user profile as described here?
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile#Resolving_corruption_in_the_user_profile

2) Does this always happen or just with some specific UI selected in "View" -> "User Interface"?

3) What theme have you selected in Plasma settings?

1) No, the bug does not show up in safe mode. But it does show up with a new user profile (if I proceeded correctly).

2) With other UIs, it is even worse. I will attach a screenshot of the tabbed interface.

3) The KDE theme used is Breeze.

That's quite surprising. Does the issue still happen when you start with a new profile in a temporary directory, by starting LibreOffice from command line like this:

    libreoffice -env:UserInstallation=file://$(mktemp -d)

(replace 'libreoffice' with full path to your installation if necessary, like /opt/libreoffice<VERSION>/program/soffice if you're using the TDF-provided packages).

Does "Tools" -> "Extensions Manager" show any extensions?
Comment 7 Frederic Parrenin 2021-03-17 10:15:57 UTC
When I use another profile with the following command line:

libreoffice -env:UserInstallation=file://$(mktemp -d)

The issue does not show up but the theme is also completely different.

No, "Tools" -> "Extensions Manager" does not show any extensions.

What exactly do you mean by "the theme is different"? Is that a setting you can make from inside LibreOffice?

Can you please copy and paste the information from "Help" -> "About LibreOffice" for both cases, the one where the issue does not show up, "but the theme is completely different" and the one where the issue occurs?

The issue is gone on my side now.
I used a new user profile (I was not doing it correctly before) and it solved the problem.
Thank you for your help.
Is there anything I can do to help?

Great to hear, thanks for the update.
Let's close this bug as WORKSFORME then.

Or do you want to investigate further what setting in the old profile caused the issue? If so, you can e.g. remove files/settings from the old profile (or take over from the new one) until you identify the problematic setting (make a backup first).
