Zero window size CSV import to Calc

Post by rjmnook@gmail.com »

Is there a wat to avoid the zero window size that results after importing a CSV spredsheet? Sometimes just the title bar appears, other times just the min max and dismiss characters are visible. But I recently had cases whether the initial window size is a vertical line of almost zero widtd, which is impossible to resize. If I am able to resize the window as in the first two examples then the resized sizes is remembered in reopening. There's no obvious way to resize with the initial window have almost zero width.

Do you have a screenshot (see: How to attach a document here)?
I don't import very often but never saw that I think.
Can't you use LibreOffice, the default application? Under active development, which is not the case of AOO anymore.
LibreOffice 25.2 on Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE Faye) and 24.8 portable on Windows 11.

Hit Alt+Space, choose "Resize" and then the arrow keys.
