Thanks Tom and Brian for your tips... I finally figured it out. Left click "Inside" the text box in a slide. Then right click in the text box and select "Bullets and Numbering". Click on the "Customise" tab. For "Number" select "None", and for Level select "1 - 10". Click on OK. Now auto-bulletin

I'm currently using LibreOffice 4.3.1.1 Impress. When I'm adding text inside of a text box and press Enter, Impress automatically adds a round bullet at the begining of the new line. I've looked around in all of the Impress options, and can't find where to turn it off. How do I turn it off? -- Je

Hi :) Good point. There is a feature for comparing 2 different documents, or the same document stored in 2 different folders. That gives all the red writing like "track changes" does in Word, or does something to show the differences and those can be accepted, rejecte or left til later. However

Hi :) Ok, so it's a Doc that was originally made in LO 4.2.x. Although the comments are being added by MS Office 2010 it 'should' be able to be read with the 4.3.0, imo, but is just not working :( It is nice to hear that even after opening and saving in LO, despite LO not seeing the comments the

Hi :) Not sure what caused it. Maybe a new Extension or something? Best way to avoid such things in the future, and to help make it easier to deploy LO onto new systems might be to create a copy of the User Profile of a version of LibreOffice once you are happy with the settings and configs. Then

Ever since version 4.0 I have not been able to use LibreOffice interchangeably with others who are using word in proofreading projects. LibreOffice continues to strip out the comments in a .doc file completely, so I am forced to using MSWord. What gives? *Rogier Fentener van Vlissingen
