Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 48254
Text repaint error while scrolling in Writer window that exeeds second screen boundary
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
The problem occurs when i scroll up in writer in a window that lays on the secondary monitor and exceeds the lower boundary of the screen. Perhaps of importance: the secondary screen is smaller than the primary A picture can be found under www.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/~richard/ooscroll.png

I get the same thing. The second monitor must be smaller than the first - otherwise you can't resize it larger than the screen. I haven't tried it on a single-monitor system by changing the resolution after sizing, but that might have the same effect.
After recieving donatellos comment i have tried a little more, now using 1.9.122 on Win XP. The second monitor is smaller, ok. But i have found another point. If the second monitor is placed on the left of the primary display (not necessarily physical, but in "display properties" -> settings" = "Eigenschaften von Anzeige -> Einstellungen") the error occurs. If the second diplay is placed on the right of the primary display, the more common setting i suppose, i can not produce the error right now. May be of interest: Win XP Pro, Matrox G450 AGP Graphics Adapter
For informational purposes, I'm runnng under Windows XP and running version 1.9.118. The test I did involved the primary as the larger screen and the secondary as the smaller screen. Both monitors are SyncMaster 950b's on RADEON 9000 SEC.
@meinsen Still a problem with 2.1?
i posted this issue at a time when i had two screens with different resolutions and a matrox g450 video card. the problem is still there in ooo 2.1 with win-xp, ati 9600 video card and two monitors with identical resolution. i removed the picture because i will leave the university and its web-space soon. i can supply a new picture if needed.
Reassigned back to SBA. Please do NOT change the assignments of an issue. Thanks!
