Hello to those at open office or those in discussion of open office. I'm a student and i love using open office, i love what it represents, i love how it works and compaires to word, but i want to address something i think is long overdue in addressing; And i'm taking a break from my finals study to address it because it is so annoying it makes open office go from a godsend to a nuisance.
When you are working on a document, nothing, i repeat, nothing, is more annoying then when it tries, in all friendly intention, to edit the document for you. The most important of these auto-editings to address here is simply when you are numbering something, and it FORCES a space, about tab size, before each of your numbered lines. In word, i believe there is a little helper that pops up at the bottom of the screen, that when scrolled over gives you the option to disable this nuisance from hell. In contrast, open office forces you to investigate the matter like a technician, and has the most disgusting, albeit detailed, options window, that anyone simply wanting to disable the autonumbering option will cringe at seeing. CAN it be made, that an update could allow for simple, nearly AUTO disabling of this auto-nuisance? I'm crossing my fingers and going back to studying. On another note, thank you for reading and thank you for an amazing program! Chris
