Please read the Survival Guide for the forum, especially that thread : Tips for a better description of the problem.

I move your question to the Mac forum.

Hmmm, not had this problem on my Macbook. Have you updated the video drivers or anything like that recently ? What are the OpenGL settings like in Tools > Options > OpenOffice.org ?

Are you using the X11 or the Aqua version of OpenOffice.org ? Is your Macbook Pro an Intel or PPC processor ?
