Bug ID: 150728
Summary: Formatting Aids settings for LibreOffice Writer/Web
are ignored
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.3.6.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: stephane.guil...@member.fsf.org
Description:
The Formatting Aids settings specific to the Web view are ignored, and the
general Formatting Aids settings are used instead.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Writer
2. "View > Web"
3. Make sure that "View > Formatting Marks" is on
4. Write a couple of words, press enter
5. Got to "Tools > Options > LibreOffice Writer/Web > Formatting Aids" and
change some settings (like unticking the markers for Paragraph ends and for
spaces)
6. Click OK
Actual Results:
This has no impact on the formatting marks displayed on the page. In fact, it
is the settings in "Tools > Options > LibreOffice Writer > Formatting Aids"
that are used.
Expected Results:
The formatting aids settings specific to the Web view are taken into account in
the Web view.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
I feel like LibreOffice would benefit from removing this web-specific
Formatting Aids section entirely, and follow a single set of formatting aids
settings for both the Normal and Web views.
