This seems to be the "word completion" utility. See at Tools → Autocorrect
→ Autocorrect options and on the last tab disable the autocompletion.


By the way it can be a really useful feature. To use it, you just have to
press ENTER to confirm the suggested word or continue typing if that's not
what you need. (Or probably you can press ESC too,  I can't remember and
I'm on the smartphone now). Please consider learning the keyboard use:
you'll see that many more things can be done and about 10 times faster ;)

I've seen that behaviour too. AFAIK it is present on all 5.x versions.


I've never experienced such a behaviour in any platform (Linux, Mac or
Windows).

Have a nice Sunday,

Re: [libreoffice-users] Remove or hide Endnotes separator line.

Hi Folks,

Maybe 5.2.3?




I thought, or deluded myself, that I knew most of the tricks to get
Writer to work "My Way", but here I have hit a total road block.

When inserting Endnotes a short separator line is automatically added 
to
the top of the list of notes and I cannot find any way to hide or 
remove

it from the printed manuscript. If the list server doesn't remove the
embedded image, here is a screen capture of what I am referring to:

I suspect there is no "user" option to fix this and I am left with a
cumbersome work-around.


It seems you are using a section to get the endnotes not on a page of 
its own but following the main text. Is that right?


In that case, the line separating the endnote from the rest of the 
section is the same used by the page style to separate the footnotes 
from the main text so you need to modify the corresponding page style: 
on the Footnote tab, set the line style as [None].


Important note: this seems to work only on 5.2+, with 5.1 "none" shows a 
continuous line too.


Regards,
Ricardo




In case some genius wants to tell me this is the technically correct
method of displaying/printing Endnotes. I don't care, I and my students
just want to make it go away.









TIA
Dave

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Full Path in Title Bar

No self - respecting robot would vote for either a Republican or a Democrat!  
I agree it would help to have the entire URL appear in the toolbar..
particularly needed is information to determine if url is https ftp ftps or
http etc not all servers use W3 standards. 

.  hiding things is the way government works,   today
your chances of finding a way to talk to a government employee
at work is about as likely as your chances of winning the lottery.

 No, the project intentionally keeps the OS and its Desktop
 Environment
 unencumbered--and we let the OS and DE do their thing. 
 
 On Windows that means we keep the MS Windows Standard Frame
 and do not
 change default Windows application frame to show more than
 program name, and
 the file name of an open document and the standard Windows
 frame button
 widgets. [1][2]  I do not expect that we would change
 from that default here
 or for other OS/DE.
 
 Especially as you can customize a toolbar (Tools ->
 Customize: Toolbars
 tab), and show the "Load URL" widget. It is unchecked but
 available by
 default on the Standard toolbar--but personally when
 customizing I would
 move it to the end of the toolbar.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Version 5.2.1.2 Questions

2016-12-03 Thread CVAlkan 
Re: Fudmer's comment ...

I've also experienced this partial copy with Ubuntu 16.04.1 and LibreOffice
5.2.3.2, but I would describe it as "SOMETIMES when I paste something copied
elsewhere into Writer, I only get the first word."

It doesn't always happen, and I hadn't yet decided whether it was a problem
with LibreOffice or Ubuntu, since I got updates to both at around the same
time.

So: I didn't file a bug report; if anyone else experiences something like
this, it would be helpful to know. Then maybe it can be pinned down.
