First of all, I want to thank every person who replied to my topic. This is actually my first time using mailing lists and I have to admit that I was initially skeptical that I would get any replies at all, but I was totally wrong!
Stephan's reply really made me reconsider what exactly I wanted Libreoffice to do. I thought about my original post a bit more, and I realized that it doesn't make a lot of sense to have a long word split into two pieces as if they were two separate words. A hyphen is used in most books to indicate that the word started at the end of the line actually continues on into the next line. I also realized that the only reason I didn't want hyphenation initially was because of URLs, but of course those aren't a problem anymore because of Ron's clever workaround. So basically, I consider my problem completely resolved now, thanks to all the replies. I only have one final question about what Stephan wrote. I went to the wiki page and I understood every part of your summary except the last part on manually hyphenating single words. I tried Ctrl and -, and I got some very small hyphen in the middle of the word where my cursor was. It almost seemed to overlap the letters instead of forcing the letters apart a little bit to make space for the hyphen. So what exactly is the point of using Ctrl and - and how is it different from using just -? -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] In case of problems unsubscribing, write to [email protected] Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
