gnumeric bug

[Azzurra]

Hi Ubuntu community!!!

I have recently ungraded my Ubuntu to 14.04 and I must use gnumeric for my work, since Libreoffice spreadsheet is not very confortable. With the upgraded version of Ubuntu, I have a problem that does not allow me to work properly. When I build a graph, the graph options window is very small and I cannot see all the options without using the scrollbar. This is very annoing for working and it takes times to prepare a graph.
Does someone have the same problem?
If this bug has not been fixed, could anyone suggest me a spredsheet programm instead of gnumeric and libreoffice?

Thank you all!!!

See where the mouse pointer is in the screenshot - you should see somewhere on your's to drag the bottom part of the customise dialogue down.

If that is not what you mean then can you do a screenshot to describe what your problem is.

Thanks Elfy!!
That is the point...I do not see the "three sall bars" wher the mouse pointer is in your screenshot. As a result, the bottom part of the screenshot is very very small in my case. What do you think it depends on?

I've just checked in 14.04 - the resize handle is there in the version I've got there too.

Can you check which version you have, also what themes are you using - I'll check again if it's not default greybird.

The gnumeric version I have is 1.12.9.
As reagrds themes...what do you mean? I do not know where to look at! What is "greybird"?

Also please check in your .config folder for a gnumeric entry.

That said it appears to be a bug, screenshot in there seems to be the same, they upgraded as well - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...c/+bug/1314393

Try purging and reinstalling gnumeric

sudo apt-get purge gnumeric && sudo apt-get install gnumeric

Forget the theme

[monkeybrain20122]

Run

xfce4-appearance-settings

in a terminal, what theme does is say it's using.

OP doesn't appear to be using Xubuntu.

Thanks missed that.

1) the answer is: Ambience
2) there is not a gnumeric entry in .config

I tried to purge and re-install but nothing happend...
so do I just need to wait for the bug fixing???

[Azzurra]

or maybe i could downgrade the gnumeric version?
