Please test in safe mode, Menu/Help/Restart in Safe Mode I did now. Those artifacts still remain after restarting in safe mode. Do you need further images in safe mode? Please test disabling skia. Thanks - that fixed it! I still can't select text by dragging over it, but text selection via start position + shift click @ end position does work and is shown now properly, too. Is that a preference setup or is that another bug? Skia working should be better, it is in relation with the graphics driver. Test if there is some update for it. How do I test for a Skia update? Do I acutally have to install depot_tools, bazelisk, ninja and skia on my MacOS or is there an easier way? After working with that document again, with SKIA disabled, I still observe the same problems: Random text areas are duplicated as rectangular areas with a significant offset. Cursor can't be inserted at the desired position, but is shown with an offset and small parts of the letters around, as a smaller block. A refresh of the window is required to remove the blocking and to permit proper text selection and cursor positioning again.

No, Skia ships with LibreOffice, you don't need to worry about setting up a development environment :) There were many Skia-related fixes for macOS recently, so you might try how Skia works with 24.2. |
