Black window on ubuntu 17.10

Hi everyone,

recently switched from ubuntu 16.04 to 17.10 with a fresh install, so I had to reinstall office 2013 as well. Since the upgrade I can't seem to get office 2013 to work, every window is just black, see screenshot.

Before the switch everything went just fine. I have intel hd graphics 5500, so this should be compatible with direct X 10.

Tried on wayland and xorg, both the same problem. Installed version of office 2013 is 32-bit. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

update: turns out i was missing some libraries. Fixed it by running "/opt/cxoffice/bin/cxdiag" and installing what I was missing.

Hope this helps somebody.
