Libreoffice invisible after launch

Open ZechariahB opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Libreoffice launches an application before launching Base, Calc, Draw, Impress, Math, or Writer. As such, only the first program launched is briefly visible before no application is displayed at all. Libreoffice is regardless visible in activities. After Libreoffice is launched, a workaround is to either reset the shell (which is impossible in Wayland), launch another application, or disable then enable the extension to update the dash.

I tested the default ubuntu-dock extension provided in the 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish LTS release of Ubuntu as well as ubuntu-dock-jammy branch of this extension. This issue is very reproducible with any settings configured as far as I know. Please notify if other branches are affected as well.

This sounds like a general gnome-shell bug, possibly caused by other extensions. If you can reproduce it consistently then please run this command to report it to Ubuntu:

ubuntu-bug gnome-shell

I don't believe this is a gnome shell bug yet, since I tested it with all extensions disabled prior to reporting this. There are no extensions that are affecting the dock abnormally. I enabled Window List for comparison, an extension part of Gnome Classic side by side with dash-to-dock and launched LibreOffice Writer. Window List displays LibreOffice Writer as intended. This behavior is seems specific to dash-to-dock

Closed after no activity. I at least can verify that it is Ubuntu's dash to dock that is causing this odd issue and not any others. Using dash to dock with Fedora is fine and dandy.

I'm not sure if this is the same for you, but for me, the problem was fixed with https://askubuntu.com/a/1432230/919028
