Hi :) In Gedit (just a text-editor so it's not as fancy as Writer) when i do search it flags up all occurences by giving them a yellow background. The currently selected one has a grey background. Since i know what i selected i can shrink the document so that i can barely see the tiny words. Just their location is enough for me to see whether to let the replace happen or skip to the next one. I thought Writer would do roughly the same?
I agree it's a tad annoying if it doesn't automatically scroll to the next one when asked! On Ubuntu 12.04 with a LO 3.5.4 from the repos (ie not an installed .deb from the TDF downloads opage) it does scroll through just fine. Have you tried renaming your user-profile to see if that shakes it loose?
