If I resize a Libre-Office window dragging the top windows border, the window doesn't redraw itself and the decorations disappear. It doesn't happen with other applications.
Can I do anything about that?

I've been seeing the same issue. It ONLY happens with Libre-Office windows, regardless of which side/corner I resize from. If I then double-click the title bar to maximize it, then again to restore it, it re-draws itself properly. But sometimes the resize makes the title-bar go away and I can't do that.

Hmmm. I've been having this issue as well, but I thought it was due to the Xorg on my mac OSX (since I was running libreoffice through ssh X11 tunnelling). Good to know thats not it.

I'm having the same issue with xubuntu 11.10, has anyone found the solution.

I couldn't find a solution with Ubuntu, but installing Debian squeeze with XFCE solved the problem. That leads me to think that Ubuntu means more fun, but Debian is better for professional use.

This is still an issue with Ubuntu/Xubuntu 12.04. There is a workaround that fixes this bug. From "Synaptic Package Manager" install the package named "libreoffice-gtk" and restart any LibreOffice windows. This will fix this issue.

From the following bug report:
