doesn't solve my problem, as in the Preferences -- Formatting Aid the Space

 Not in the LibreOffice window but at the top of the screen. Do you not
 see "LibreOffice" there, as in this picture?

 Click that: do you not see "Preferences"?

 Otherwise, is it in the Apple menu??

 If you choose to use a peculiar Mac, you have to get used to its
 peculiarities!

Looks like a bug, please report it (I remember fixing this issue on

  if i open a page, i don't see anything that
says Tools.


As said by the other user, preferences are under LibreOffice menu, close to
the Apple symbol. I suppose you know that in MacOs the menu bar is on the
very first line on the top of the screen, detached from the program window.
I also suggested shortcut CMD + , to get there quickly and check what's
selected to be visible.

just pictures--well markings of the function. i'm so new i
can't make a screenshot here, what a pity.


The shortcut for screenshot is SHIFT + CMD + 4 (if I'm not wrong, I'm still
on mobile phone :)


there r lot of those functions,
one fancier than other--i think i don't need 4/5 of them. yes, the
function-marker looks like P in mirror--the same it was in Linux-LO,
Windows and everywhere else.


Well, it was just to understand if we were talking about the same thing.

Macs are different! For Tools | Options..., read LibreOffice | Preferences.

highlight whatever i want, but i can't activate the so-called 'middle
dots'--empty-spaces-marker between words and other units. but i badly need
to see them because the book will be published from the manuscript-file and
i wouldn't count on editor to do such fine work. when i press the icon that
i know to be for that purpose, it only displays the enter-marks.
i've been using LibreOffice for years while on my old Linux-based laptop
(and was in this list too, now subscribed anew), and that manuscript was
written in LibreOffice Writer. i mention it to illustrate i know a thing or
two about LOWriter.
i trust it's something easy that just doesn't leap to mind!

[libreoffice-users] no middle dots

2017-02-19 Thread Ann Must
hi!

i'm a (very) new macbook user & as such ignorant. also, i've to complete a
book of mine before handing it over to publisher. in TextEdit, there seems
not to be a shorter-than-paragraph highlighting possibility (confirmed by
lots of comments), so i downloaded .DMG file from
https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/install-howto/os-x/ site. now i can
highlight whatever i want, but i can't activate the so-called 'middle
dots'--empty-spaces-marker between words and other units. but i badly need
to see them because the book will be published from the manuscript-file and
i wouldn't count on editor to do such fine work. when i press the icon that
i know to be for that purpose, it only displays the enter-marks.
