LibreOffice Writer menubar dont work perfectly.

[Marcelo Odir]

Hello guys,

I tripped over a bug this morning in the LibreOffice Writer.

Every time when I open it the menubar dont work perfectly. The minimize button, close button and maximize button dont appear.
When you enable to show de menus in the window's title bar, all de menus simply disappear.

This problem happens only in LibreOffice Writer, other applications are running smoothly.

Sorry my english.

Bye.

After to change the Unity´s top bar to fully transparent, I realized that the title bar of the Writer is apparent behind it.

Can anyone confirm this?

You're right, Marcelo. I've used "workspaces" function to move the LibreOffice Writer window, and the menu bar was behind the Unity's top bar. So, I think Writer is initiated in a wrong window position.

It is hard to me to explain in english fluently but the solution is ridiculous. If you open for instance "writer" and you dont see the menu bar all you have to do is to point with mouse on bottom rand wait that arrow transform in "arrow down" and PULL DOWN.
