Making a basic presentation using OOImpress 1.0.2 and when we inserted a sphere into the title page every menu, button and scroll bar disappeared making the whole program unusable. See te screen shot for further verification at http://www.ozanimal.net/openofficeerror.jpg
Set to new.
This sounds like a problem with the Open GL drivers of the graphic card. Sometimes thes drivers are badly programmed so the only solution is to turn this of or use another driver. For turning of please do this: go to Tools/Option/OpenOffice.org/View and uncheck the marks in "optimized output" and "Use OpenGL". If that solves the problem we have the reason for the problem.
I have found that using Open GL with the latest nVidia drivers (41.09) is ok as long as I uncheck the "optimized output" box. Thanks wg@openoffice.org for your help. I can't believe I didn't think of that myself.
Issue closed.
