Bug ID: 149177
Summary: Formatting
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]

FORMATTING I am a long term user of OpenOffice Writer. I downloaded LibreOffice
to avoid some of the issues I experienced, mainly an inability to write a
format free text. I therefore only used Open Office for notes -- all badly
formatted as a consequence.
So I tried LibreOffice Writer and encountered some of the same problems. I want
an option clearly stated ("Turn off formatting") to enable me to control my own
formatting SIMPLY. I do not want to hunt around in preferences and online help
for how to achieve simplicity and eliminate automatic formatting of any kind. I
will enable that when I want it.
In OpenOffice I was faced with mysterious double lines which help was not
helpful in eliminating. I see I can use Ctrl+M to remove formatting -- after
searching for an hour.
You have produced a nice product which I will occasionally use. But I still
have to remove bad formatting from key documents before I can write a simple
letter in Writer. The fancy stuff should come second -- to be used if and when
I need it.
I also note that LibreOffice crashes/hangs as frequently as OpenOffice on Win
10. Not good. I have to save manually frequently
