Regards; You will find that in Tools -> AutoCorrect -> AutoCorrect Options on the Options tab two check boxes (M - while modifying, T - while typing) for the stanza "Automatic *bold*,/ italic/,- strikeout-,_underline_" Just uncheck, and OK to apply. Remember to revert if you need the feature otherwise. I did not know this 'feature' existed, so i uncheck it!

[libreoffice-users] Firefox themes
The menu bar of LO is all white, I cannot see anything except when I click on an item. I have Windows 10 and use High Contrast yellow on black colors. I've tried to get Firefox themes, but I wasn't able. It says: Cannot open htpps://services Please try again later. This problem is not new. Several months ago when I first downloaded LO I encountered it, and in fact it made me delay starting using LO because of this issue. I came to understand that I shouldn't expect this issue to be fixed in the foreseeable future. So I downloaded a theme on my desktop (*.xpi). Is it possible to install it manually in some folder?

There are a few optimistic sounding notes posted on Bugzilla, but as noted you "/shouldn't expect this issue to be fixed in the foreseeable future/". If you have a recent version of LO installed, you will find 6 "personas" in the LO installation directory C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\share\gallery\personas\. They appear in the LibreOffice -> Options -> Personalization as "/Preinstalled themes/". Here is a workaround I have used to overcome this LO defect: * Pick one of the "/Preinstalled themes/" and apply it. For illustration purposes only I am using "/Sand/". * Shut LO down * Take the .xpi you downloaded and unzip it to any convenient folder. * Most likely the .xpi contains 3 graphic jpg or png files ( 1 - 200 px high, 1 -100 px high and preview image) * Copy the 200px high and the 100px high files over to C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\share\gallery\personas\sand * If you get a message asking to overwrite, answer YES. Otherwise delete the existing "Header.png" and "Footer.png" files and rename the files extracted from the .xpi as "Header.png" and "Footer.png". * If they are jpeg images rename them "Header.jpg" and "Footer.jpg" and edit the 5th line of C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\share\gallery\personas\personas_list.txt: sand;Sand;sand/preview.png;sand/header.jpg;sand/footer.jpg;;#00;#ff * Restart LO and your theme should be displayed. You say that you using a high contrast setting, in which case you might need to tweak some of the 2 color settings in the C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\share\gallery\personas\personas_list.txt file. NOTE: Once you have a working configuration, make a backup copy of your chosen theme (eg. sand), because it will not survive any LO update. Hop this helps.
