Thank you so much NKR!

The full output of xprop is the following:

WM_LOCALE_NAME(STRING) = "en_US.UTF-8"
WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "André Desgualdo Pereira.odt - OpenOffice Writer"
WM_NAME(STRING) = "André Desgualdo Pereira.odt - OpenOffice Writer"
WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
                window state: Normal
                icon window: 0x0
_MOTIF_WM_HINTS(_MOTIF_WM_HINTS) = 0xf, 0x1, 0x1, 0x0, 0x0
WM_CLIENT_LEADER(WINDOW): window id # 0xe00001
_NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 26922
WM_CLIENT_MACHINE(STRING) = "desguai7"
WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS):
                program specified location: 0, 17
                window gravity: Static
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "VCLSalFrame", "OpenOffice 4.1.14"
WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols WM_DELETE_WINDOW
WM_HINTS(WM_HINTS):
                Client accepts input or input focus: True
                bitmap id # to use for icon: 0xe0825f
                bitmap id # of mask for icon: 0xe08260
                window id # of group leader: 0xe08248
XdndAware(ATOM) = BITMAP

I upgraded my machine to Debian 12, unfortunatelly I can't test it back on Debian 11.
