Bug ID: 94521
Summary: FEATURE REQUEST: Highlighting of current line
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.0.1.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: tom...@freenet.de
When editing long paragraphs (many lines) of text and switching often between
the screen and some paperwork on the table, it is sometimes difficult to find
the actual text cursor position within the text document on the screen. As a
workaround I often play with the curser keys in order to finally recognize the
jumping bar of the text cursor withing the text document on the screen.
The editor "kate" has a very helpful feature called "Editor background colors
-> Current line", which allows the user to specify a background color for the
entire line that holds the text cursor. As a result, the search for the text
cursor is now reduced only to one single line, the line that is highlighted.
It would be helpful, if a corresponding option could be added to LO Writer and
if a dedicated button could be added to one of the toolbars (eg Format) to
allow a quick turn-on/off of this feature.
Regards
Tom
