To simulate: 1. New a Draw Document 2. Insert a text, say "testing" 3. Select large pt. size 4. Select Menu "Format>3D Effect". 5. Select the top left option. 6. Select a light blue color to make the image easy to read. Sample screen dump attached.

Set to new.
Does the text appear broken after a Repaint (STRG-SHIFT-R)? Mostly this kind of problems is caused by Open GL. Does it still happen if you switch it off under tools/options/Openoffice.org/view/3D view? Thanks in adnvance.
After switching off Open GL in the "Config" menu, the problem disappeared.
This problem is caused by badly programmed OpenGL drivers. Therefore we can do nothing about it, sorry. But switching of OpenGL option should not affect your normal working very much. Another way would be to try different drivers for the graphic card. Thanks for your help!
