<pre>@Matt,
"The LibreOffice UI doesn't show when trying to create new documents..."
That is a little too indescript. A couple of screen clips please.
There were instances during the OpenGL based era, when specific drivers would
result in GUI menus not displaying their text. And it would be a GPU/driver
related issue for AMD, Intel or nVidia graphics.
But, that using default GDI rendering -- deselecting the OpenGL rendering from
the Tools -> Options -> View dialog (or via Denylist handling for the GPU, os,
or driver) restores visibility.
I can't recall the same visual glitches with menus have happened in the Skia
rendering era, but it is feasible.
Helps to remember LO implements multiple rendering modes:
1. CPU only, default GDI (all uncheckeds on Tools -> Options -> View panel)
2. default GDI with CPU controlled Hardware Acceleration (the one box checked)
3. either of the above with the anti-aliasing box checked
4. Skia based accelerated rendering raster only (with both Skia boxes checked)
5. Skia based accelerated rendering with Vulkan--next gen OpenGL--(the raster
rendering box unchecked)
For 7.2 OpenGL rendering calls have now been removed. And the Denylist /
Allowlist handling only affects the Skia rendering use of Vulkan or raster only
calls.
So, with that in mind please rethink your testing. Each of the rendering
configurations, against each of the discrete nVidia GPU's drivers, or any
additional GPU / driver you test (e.g. an onboard Intel).</pre>
