--- Comment #9 from ThomasU <tnet...@gmail.com> --- Thanks. After struggling a while I found out that the SW_DEBUG=1 "environment variable" should not be defined in the bash environment of the terminal I use to launch LibreOffice but rather in the soffice command line. I needed more precise instructions. I'm not in the same world as yours! What's needed on the command line is: /opt/libreofficedev7.3/program/swriter -env:SW_DEBUG=1 Your F12 is based on what is described on line 25 of: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/sw/qa/extras/README Then I type "aaaa bbbb cccc" Enter tracking mode Delete bbbb which becomes striked out Then type F12 Then files nodes.xml and layout.xml get dumped in the folder where I started swriter. Then on line 270 of nodes.xml I see: <SwRangeRedline ptr="0x2295b40" id="0" author="TU" date="2022-06-14T12:06:39Z" descr="Delete “bbbb”" type="REDLINE_DELETE"> I've attached layout.xml -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
