Bug Description

libreoffice calc works fine in a full-screen window (as it starts up), but as soon as the window is shrunk (either due to dragging or hitting the window-bar button) it gets very confused. It still believes that it is full-screen, to top and left: If I hit alt-F then the 'file' menu appears disembodied over on the LH side of screen where it would be if the app was still full-screen.

It looks as if the application never gets the 'window stopped being fullscreen' message. I can carry on using the application in the smaller window: keypresses move the selected cell. There are scrollbars part way across the window both horizontally and vertically. They stay a constant distance from the right and bottom window edges, respectively. clicks work inside the 'scroll-bar delineated' area, but not the area outside the scrollbars but inside the window. Only the window-manager bar to the right of the vertical scrollbar is redrawn - the part to the left is overwritten by the application toolbars. The window area between the scrollbars and the RHS/bottom window edge is not redrawn and just contains 'old' screen data.

I've added a screenshot to make this rather clearer.

I'm using xfce and thus xfwm4 window-manager.

Odd. Apparently you don't actually need that :-) OK.
