I love openoffice. One little feature that seems to get in the way is what I would call 'smart list numbering'. I would like to switch it off.
Here is the Feature: Say I write a quick outline, intending to go back and fill in the blanks later. 1>Step One 2>Step Two 3>Another Step When I put my cursor at the end of the first line later and hit enter to open a blank line, the list get renumbered. I have discovered that If I hit enter again, the renumbering is undone, but it is still distracting, and a pain if I don't catch it. Another one is: I, the dude who likes lists (now press enter) ...you get a newly numbered list item II, Can I turn this off? While not as annoying as the paper clip ( http://www.khmer.ws/jokes/2393.html ) it does get in my way. Now, I admit that I am a vim user at heart - I tap the escape key at the end of a passage all the time, and when I proof my work, I am always finding lower-case i's where I tried to drop into insert mode without thinking, but hey, I do not want my tools to get in my way. aloha, dave -- aloha, dave
