hmm... yep, I'd say that's some buggy performance there... unless... do you have a winoptions setting for OOo? check ~/.icewm/winoptions for lines with

<somemysterystringhere>.OpenOffice.org 2.0

if there is one that says

<somemysterystringhere>.OpenOffice.org 2.0.workspace: 0

that may be your problem. just a hunch, but iceWM lets you configure all sorts of things about how different programs behave with sometimes unexpected results.

for ex. I used to have these lines for firefox:

Gecko.Firefox-bin.workspace: 3 #makes it always open in workspace 4 (count from 0)

Gecko.Firefox-bin.geometry: 1280x568+0+0 #forces window size to those dimensions and location.

so that second line was a problem. Seemed to work great until you call up another dialog from firefox, like the print window. Well, it got the same dimensions as the main window. very ugly.
