Hi,
As I believe, this feature is not yet available in OpenOffice.
There is a bug report here: <http://www.openoffice.org/issues/
show_bug.cgi?id=18004>
But it has been a while since there was any activity there... anyone
else know anything about this?

MISSING IMPORTANT CURSOR POSITION FEATURE IN OpenOffice 2.1 WRITER
(Win XP and presumably Linux Ubuntu also).
1. Open the two attached screen shot .jpg files in Windows XP
preferably side by side in 'tile' view if possible.
2. Compare the bottom 'bar' of
Example1CursorPositionOpenOfficeWriter2.1
with
Example2CursorPositionWord97
3. Note that Example1 (OO) does NOT have full cursor position.
4. Note that Microsoft Word 97 and all later versions of WORD
does have full cursor position. The example looks like the
following;
Page 4 Set 1 4/148 At 4.7cm Ln 6 Col 2
5. The latter vital feature is missing in OO 2.1 Writer or
have I missed some tool or configuration?
6. The above is obviously OO 2.1 for Windows XP but I'm migrating
to Ubuntu Linux 6.10 soon with OO 2.1 Linux (Both 32 bit versions.)
7. As a writer of novels the exact cursor position is VITAL when
I come to paginate manuscripts for home printing on A4 paper.
8. If this feature is not in OO 2.1 (Win XP and Linux 32 bit)
COULD IT PLEASE BE INCORPORATED IN NEXT VERSIONS PLEASE?
