Description of problem:
While combo box for choosing style, font size or font type (Writer) is opened, I am unable to control any other window (firefox, hexchat) on other monitors, application itself cannot be minimized or closed via controls on top window panel, even Gnome shell activities, calendar and panel are not responsive.

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Writer/Calc
2.Expand the combo box to change font style/size
3.Click on: Activities, Time/Date, Try to use other applications, try to close LO window

Actual results:
Gnome shell panel, desktop of any other application is not responsive.

Is this happening on real hardware, or in virt-viewer ?

Comment 3 Martin Krajnak 2017-10-24 16:02:43 UTC
yes, I can reproduce this on my 7.4 with LO libreoffice-5.3.6.1-2.el7.x86_64.

Sorry for inconvenience, I meant both real hardware and VM.

Comment 5 Caolan McNamara 2017-10-25 14:03:25 UTC
I think I see this locally on a RHEL-7 box, but same LibreOffice version on my Fedora 26 box doesn't show the same problem. I wonder where the difference lies.

Comment 6 Martin Krajnak 2017-10-27 07:59:21 UTC
I am not sure, but do you think that bug is not in libreoffice itself ? Is there a possibility that it might be caused by changes in gnome-shell ?

Comment 7 Caolan McNamara 2017-10-27 08:40:09 UTC
possibly, but I'm sure gnome-shell would immediately argue that libreoffice is wrong for being different to other gtk3 apps which don't exhibit the same problem
