How do I turn off the dialogs that popup to help me format stuff?
I don't know of any such dialogues: you may have to explain what you mean. I do know that OpenOffice brings up toolbars according to the current context of the cursor, and that some people find these troublesome. If that is your problem, I think there are two things you can do:
o You can drag the floating toolbar and dock it into the toolbar area at the top of the document window. The toolbar will continue to appear or disappear according to context, but may not be so much of a problem.
o Put the cursor somewhere that brings up the toolbar that you do not want to see. Whilst it is displayed, go to View | Toolbars > and click to remove the tick next to the relevant toolbar. Not only will it disappear, but it will not return when the context would otherwise generate it. (Thanks to the contributor to this list from whom I learned this trick a few days ago; the web site currently declines to tell me who this was.)
