Hi Alex,

Thanks for following up. For as long as I can remember (iBook G4 days) Fn-Left
and Fn-Right chords correspond to Home and End, per "Note 1" in my original
description, and printed on the iBook keyboard as seen in the images here:
https://www.cultofmac.com/439728/apple-history-last-ibook-g4/ . It's also
mentioned in this Apple support article:
https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/windows-keys-on-a-mac-keyboard-cpmh0152/mac
. Additionally, it is also apparent in the on-screen Accessibility Keyboard,
where pressing Fn changes the glyphs on the on-screen left and right keys to ↖︎
and ↘ respectively, which are the same ones that appear in the LibreOffice
keyboard customization dialog for Home and End.

I'm not trying to dispute the built-in macOS behavior of Fn-Left and Fn-Right,
which is to move the cursor to the beginning and end of a document. What is
unexpected is that in LibreOffice, when explicitly mapping ↖︎ to "To Line
Begin", the cursor does not actually move to the beginning of the line, but
instead moves to the beginning of the document - as if the mapping had not been
created. In fact, no matter what I map that key to, the effect is always to
move the cursor to the beginning of the document. Remapping ↘, ⌘↖︎, and ⌘↘ also
have no effect.

A workaround is described here
