It is password protected, I do not know if that makes a difference. In any case, after it is opened, I do not see LibreOffice marker, the one which signify where text will be entered. And there seem to be no reaction to key presses, other then tab or the arrow keys. I do see the mouse pointer, but not the LibreOffice marker. That is, no "focus" until a tab, or an arrow key, is pressed. I guess with writer, the "focus" is marked by a blanking cursor. Indeed, pressing tab, or one of the arrow keys, produces the LibreOffice marker, and text can be entered. Keystrokes produces characters that are seen in the document. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
