            Bug ID: 148452
           Summary: In Writer, selecting text turns on superscript mode
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org

To recreate this bug:

>From the beginning of the line, type two or more words, with a blank following
the last word.

Select the words, making sure to include the following blank; then bold or
italic the selection.  (Bug does this for underline, too, and that allows you
to see that the blank was not unformatted.  Might impact other special
formatting as well; haven't exhaustively enumerated this.)

Now select only the word, excluding the following blank, and turn off the bold
or italic.  

Now, from the beginning of the word, hold down CTRL+SHIFT and use the RIGHT
ARROW key to get to the end of the line.

This turns on superscripting, and now if you overtype, you'll get
superscripting.

Cool, except that I'm trying to replace the text I wrote, not create a verbal
exponent.  

Apparently, I do this often, because it has happened to me a lot, and I finally
figured out what was happening today.

I would appreciate it if someone would fix it.  At least I now know how this is
happening!

Thanks.
