            Bug ID: 118495
           Summary: Vertical text is illegible in almost all cases
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.0.0.beta2+
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gerhard.weydt at t-online.de

Description:
This seems to be a bug connected with OpenGL. I encounter it when OpenGL is
active, but not when it's inactive.
Create a new writer document, type some characters, select them, then set the
orientation to vertical via Format -> Character -> Position (not completely
sure about the english wording). It doesn't seem to matter whether you choose
90° or 270°.
In most cases the text is not intelligible any longer. Changing the font will
normally make it readable again, but subsequent changes of orientation or font
will sommetimes make it illegible again, and then also "undo" will often not
restore a legible text.
Sorry, there's a lot of not really exact and always reproducible information,
but that's the fact!
Remark: I very often read the suggestion to deactivate OpenGL when people
report problems regarding the user interface. I start wondering why OpenGL is
by default active, then.

Actual Results:


Expected Results:



Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No


OpenGL enabled: Yes
