            Bug ID: 120435
           Summary: Unable to insert em dash with spaces
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

I want to insert an em-dash using "normal" keystrokes.  If I enter two hyphens
between words, this works.  E.g.,
  test--test
converts to
  test<em-dash>test

But what I want is test<space><em-dash><space>test, and I can't get Writer to
do this.  If if write
    test<space>--<space>test
I get 
    test<space>--<space>test
not (what I want)
    test<space><em-dash><space>test

I've tried multiple things I've seen when I googled for this, but nothing
works.  Specifically, I tried adding
<space>--<space> -> <space><em-dash><space>
to the Autocorrect options, and made sure that 'While Typing' was selected, but
that did nothing.
