Tom, David, if I open a document in Writer, and it is the only such document open in LO, and then close it with the *lower* of the two crosses displayed at the far right, the LO start screen is displayed automatically. The problem is that this behaviour is not entirely intuitive ; for example, if I first open a new empty document and then retrieve the one which I'd like to edit by clicking the «Archive» icon in the toolbar, that lower cross is no longer displayed with the document, and the latter must now be closed by clicking the upper cross, which is the only one shown on the screen - and which takes me back to the preceding, empty, document (after which I can return to the LO start screen by clicking the lower cross, which is now displayed). However, if I start from the LO start screen and retrieve a recently used document by clicking its miniature there, then both crosses *are* displayed with the document and closing it by clicking the lower one returns me to the start screen. I suspect users would find a lower cross which is always displayed and always closes the document displayed and takes one back to the LO start screen, while the upper cross is reserved for closing LO as a whole, more intuitive and user-friendly....
