I am not sure what you mean by "master sources", but I have Windows 10 v. 21H2 as of 20 Nov 2021. Three days after that update, I had the Cumulative Update Preview for Win10 as well as for the .NET framework for 3.5 and 4.8 (Is it just me, or is it rather strange that a preview comes out three days after the major update?). I have LO v. 7.2.3.1 (x86), but that should not matter because I saw bug reports dating back to at least 2014. I did not even bother writing up the bug reports for several other major issues I found while working on trying to place images in my documents, specifically with regards to the functionality of frames and captions, neither of which work as expected or desired. When I first made the switch to LO over a year ago, I discovered the text tearing and resizing issue only to find that it too had been written up previously--but never fixed. The LO feeling seemed to be that it is not that big an issue because it only allegedly happens to less than 5% of the users. Yet, it happens to me countless times every day without fail. Drives me nuts. I literally spent all day, every day, for a week or more trying every possible combination of settings in the tools menu and the styles settings to no avail. I suspect it may be because LO is using an integer data type instead of a floating point data type like double, but that is just speculation on my part (I am presuming the use of C++). If it were just the big, complicated issues, that would be one thing, but, it is also all the little, seemingly quick fixes that do not get addressed. I wrote up a bug report on the page style margins setting for the Normal (0.75") being off on the left margin side. There is seemingly no way for the user to modify or correct this, so the easy alternative is to use the Moderate Margin setting (which is the same, albeit correct, margin setting for 0.75"). I understand that everyone has different hardware, software, personal preferences for their settings, and are themselves speaking/reading/writing in different languages, but it is still monumentally frustrating that I have over one year trying to learn this software and have barely touched Calc and Math and have not even opened the other packages that come with LO due to the extremely long learning curve associated with LO. I spend more time trying to correctly document my technical notes on various subjects of interest than I do in learning or expanding my knowledge of these subjects. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
