Comment 40 for bug 1085169

I see the same thing in writer. I'm on 12.10, having done a dist-upgrade from 12.04. There doesn't seem to be a system to when it happens. I've had to docs open at the same and one working and one not. For me keyboard shortcuts that do not depend on ALT still work even when the menu stops working (e.g. F11 for Styles and Formatting).

Is there any diagnostic I could run to help fix the problem?
