I frequently use dashes in my writing to separate clauses in a sentence.
Conventionally, the appropriate dash is an em-dash. This is pre-programmed into
Writer's autocorrect feature so that a double-dash will be automatically
converted into an em-dash.
However, if the double-dash character follows a single or double quote,
parentheses or other punctuation mark, the autocorrect feature does not
recognize it and the double-dash is not converted.
To reproduce this issue, activate autocorrect and type the following into
Writer:
Convert--double-dash <-- the double-dash is converted to an em-dash
`Convert'--double-dash <-- the double-dash is not converted following the
single quote.
