When I increase row height using my mouse, it only affects the rows but not the spreadsheet itself. Am I the only one with this strange problem? I also have issues when I receive a spreadsheet with non-standard row height.

Specs: Libreoffice 7.3.7.2/Community, package 1:7.3.7-0ubuntu0.22.04.3. uname -r 5.19.0-43-generic Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS.

This sure looks like a graphics glitch. Please include OS version and Libreoffice vesion in your question. I do not have such issues on Ubuntu 23.04 and never have seen such issues in the past.

Libreoffice 7.3.7.2/Community, package 1:7.3.7-0ubuntu0.22.04.3. uname -r 5.19.0-43-generic Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS. Do you think reinstalling would solve this?

Cannot reproduce on Libreoffice 7.5. Can you try upgrading with the Libreoffice PPA?

Include the additional information in your question, not in a comment. Use "Edit". You also need to provide information on your graphical card. Likely indeed this is a graphical glitch and reinstalling won't help. Instead try temporarily creating a new account then see if the issue reproduces there. Probably yes, but if no, then we know for sure it is not a graphical issue but an issue with your specific user account.

I upgraded with the Libreoffice PPA as suggested by @ArchismanPanigrahi and this fixed the issue. I assume this means it was not an graphical card related issue? But it also means the original problem remains unclear.

It turns out to be a libreoffice bug, and it was mentioned in the comments that upgrading with the libreoffice PPA solved the issue.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo apt install libreoffice libreoffice-gtk3

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
