Created attachment 83367 [details] AVI movie showing the problem Steps how to reproduce with "AOO 4.1.0 Release – German UI / German locale [AOO410m18(Build:9764) - Rev. 1589052 2014-04-22 11:43:54]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", “historic” 4. User Profile used for all predecessor versions: 1. From AOO Start Center open new Writer document 2. Menu 'File -> Print -> General (Tab)' 3. Expand 'Details' view > Status, Location, Comment info appear 4. Select a new printer by single click every few seconds > for most printers (for example Windows XPS Document Writer) the 3 Details information lines get a grey background as you see in attached screen capture movie Additional Info: (a) In step 4 you also may select with uparrow - downarrow (b) In Calc the effect is much less than in Writer and Draw (c) Also in AOO 4.0.0, (c1) Also in AOO 3.4.0, OOo 3.3.0, but less visible (d) Very trivial problem, but might be related to "Issue 124861 - "Properties" button in Print dialog disappears"
Was able to reproduce with AOO 4.1.0 [AOO420m1(Build:9800) - Rev. 1593205] on Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit). Just to expand on the note for 4. I was able to reproduce the bug for all printers I have listed except any option related to fax. In my list this was Fax and Canon MX340 series FAX. These two options operated as expected.
CONFIRMED due to Comment 1
Reproducible with version 4.1.12 on Windows 7 & 11. The "grey background" effect can also be seen in the "Page Layout" tab, when selecting the option button: "Pages per sheet" <--> "Brochure".
