I'm using the version in the subject line on Linux Mint. In calc if I insert the date using the insert menu and the date option I get a cell with today's date, formatted comprehensibly. If I do the same thing in Writer I can't, the option isn't there. I must (as far as I know) choose field then date. That gives me text that looks like "Date (fixed)" which is not what I want. I can do a print preview and see that it will render as one might wish but that's not what I want. I really want to be able to simply insert today's date as a character string.
I think the behaviour I'm seeing breaks wysiwyg. Can anyone tell me a simple way to insert the data as characters rather than a field?
