            Bug ID: 131422
           Summary: Some Triangle and Arrow characters are displayed
                    incorrectly (as icons?)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gordon.lack at dsl.pipex.com

Description:
U+25B6 (BLACK RIGHT-POINTING TRIANGLE) is displayed as a white right-pointing
triangle on an orange background.
This happens if the typeface is set to Noto Sans, Verdana, Noto Mono, Arial...
However, it appears to be OK when the typeface is set to DejaVu Sans. It also
displays OK on MS Windows (with the typeface set to Verdana).

U+25B6 (Right-pointing) and U+25C0 (left-pointing) show this oddity, but U+25B2
(up) and U+25BC (down) do not.

A similar oddity applies to the NW/NE/SE/SW arrows U+2196 - U+2199, except
these show as white arrows on a blue background.

This used to all be OK (a year ago?). I noticed this when re-opening documents
that were previously OK.

These "coloured icon" arrows and triangles also have the feature that they do
not show up if the document is exported to PDF.

This has been seen of 6.3.5 (in Kubuntu) and 6.4.2 (downloaded from
libreoffice.org).

I'm using KDE.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a document
2. Add the relevant characters to it.
3. Look at what is displayed.

Actual Results:
Some triangles and arrow do not show as the glyphs from the font, but as
coloured icons.

Expected Results:
The display should reflect the contents of the font.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The display should reflect the contents of the font.
