Subject: SOLVED: [libreoffice-users] Slow new paragraph

Thank you Brian, 

That solved it, though I do not know exactly what happened.

Deleting the table of contents did not help. Deleting most of the document 
helped. So, there could be something in the document.

I saved the whole document (after having deleted the table of contents) in 
ritch text format, quitted libreoffice, opened the rtf document saved it back 
to odt. Problem solved ;-)

The heading numbers disappeared in the process, which is OK for the moment. I 
am not interested to test, if they were the problem.

Background of the paragraphs disappeared. I checked the original file and all 
backgrounds were 'no fill' but still the text background was different from 
the margin.
In an earlier libreoffice version I played with the background colors. Maybe 
some obsolete formatting left 'hanging' somewhere.
