Bug Description

I just upgraded to Kubuntu 11.10 and its beautiful. Thanks heaps.

Maybe you know already but there is just one small problem with
Libre Office Calc.

The slide bar along the bottom is partially covered by the
spreadsheet and doesn't work. This makes horizontal navigation
difficult.

Not sure if its to do with my screen size which is the old 15.4".
I am using an Acer TravelMate 6410.

This problem was not evident in Kubuntu 11.04 or any earlier
versions of Open Office Calc.

best regards

Rus Watson

Dear Rus,

I have been able to reproduce the problem you have described and it is indeed making it impossible to scroll in the spreadsheet. I will mark this bug as regression bug since it was introduced as part of the new release. The problem occurs even on large screens.

Thanks again for reporting this problem.

I'm having the same problem but just noticed that it works when you click on the topmost pixel row of the scroll bar. Not really a workaround but may give you some information what's going wrong.

Hi,

a workaround

hitting SHIFT and moving the mouse scroll wheel moves the horizontal scroll bar around.

Removing libreoffice-kde fix the problem, but lets Libre Office with a 90's look.
