Please read the

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 ?
