One of the drop-down fields here asks for the earliest version of LibreOffice
this appears in, but I have absolutely no idea.
Hello. I came across these difficulties and missing functionalities after
creating a document of address labels via File, New, Labels.
1) There's no way to move between columns except by putting the mouse there
and clicking, and there are too many scenarios or circumstances where that's
one of either infeasible or unreasonable. I'm talking about moving from left
to right without jumping to the beginning or ending of that adjacent column,
just moving left or right while the page stays right where it already is.
If these commands I'm talking about weren't meant to refer to or be used in
columns of mailing labels, then either they need to be adapted to apply to
mailing labels, or else a different set of commands is needed just for rows and
columns of address labels. I've searched in the Writer Guide PDF file, I've
done Google searches, and there is zero information.
1-A) The "To Previous Column" at the bottom doesn't work when assigning it a
keystroke. I tried Alt-Left and nothing happened. There isn't even an
available command for "To Next Column" to even try.
2) The command of "Insert Column Break" in the category of "Insert" doesn't do
anything. The cursor sits there after I type an address in the first label and
press Ctrl-Shift-Enter, but instead of moving over to the next label (or if I'm
in the rightmost label, then move down one row and to the leftmost label), the
cursor just stays in that same label.
3) An on-the-side incidental I thought of while typing up this information, is
that the "Category" list on the left should be alphabetized instead of the
mish-mash jumble it is now.
