Summary: FORMATTING Autocorrect Replace does not correct two
dashes to em-dash *they way it should*
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: NEW
Version: 4.0.3.3 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
two dashes -- won't be replaced in some cases ..
#1
you type:
yes said she
into which you insert 2 dashes:
yes -- said she
now this one to get replaced to em dash
you need to add a letter after the dashes to activate autocorrect
yes -- aa said she
plus:
you'll need to add a space after them ..
yes -- aa said she
...................................................
#2
you type:
"yes" said she
everything is the same, except it will only work if you add some word after the
quotation mark too ..
"yes" aa -- aa said she
and now it'll work
the same for question mark too ..
yes? said she
and periods like:
yes... said she
it'd take to type:
yes... aa -- aa said she
..................................................
the way it should work is (in my pov) is
typing "--" plus a space and it'd get replaced ...
or without spaces..
(this already works fine !!)
typing a word plus 2 dashes without space ..
and add a space after the second word ..
(this already works fine)
I hope i didn't write anything stupid ...
i'm aware of bug 55292 (for a libreoffice version 3.6.0.2 rc
but i was totally satisfied with my last version:
libreoffice 4.0.2.2
this problem came in 4.0.3.3
and i'll check if it's present in 4.0.4.1 rc or not
thank you for your work:
Peter Josvai
