--- Comment #5 from Coburn Ingram <thru...@gmail.com> ---
I have this bug also. In order to get a leading em dash before a word, I used
to have to type "a--word," hit the spacebar, and then LO would convert the two
minuses to an em dash, and I could delete the leading "a" (dummy character).
Awkward, but not too bad. Spellcheck wants you to have an em dash only between
two words. In Spanish, for example, we use it instead of quote marks, and so it
has to be at the beginning of a paragraph also.
Now even that does not work. I have to do all the same things, and then wait
for autocorrect to draw a blue line under the dash, and right-click. The option
given is "en dash or em dash." I can then change the two minuses to an em dash
manually.
This is new since about the 6.0 release. I have deleted my profile. That does
not work. I thought maybe it was because I was working on some documents
created several years ago. It applies even in a brand new document. I also have
gone into Spell Check Options and reset everything. That did not work. I tried
specifying that two minuses are to convert to an em dash. That was the default
anyway, and it did not work.
