To all users of Open Office 3,
When I type, my cursor seems to randomly move to a new location causing
my typing to be shown at areas that I do not choose!
Is there a correction for this problem! It makes my typing a horror show,
and very frustrating to use Open Office.
This software seems to be excellent, yet this problem will cause me too
much anguish!
I have this problem and, as another poster suggested, it's because I am
using a laptop. I did once see a solution for this, which involved
disabling the mouseplate when typing and for about two seconds after one
stopped, but I think I was using linux at the time and got the tip from
ubuntu forums. I've just searched the OOo archives using several
apparently appropriate search terms without luck.
However, one thread I found suggested using a usb mouse and turning the
mouseplate off. You might try this. I'll test it myself on my Mac
laptop.
