How does one erase triple-dash lines that are placed after paragraphs?

To test, type this text in Writer:
"
test
---
"

Now try to erase the line created by the dashes. Is this really
expected behaviour, or is it a bug?

This is an "AutoCorrect" feature which turns those dashes into a border. To remove it, either undo immediately after it turns the dashes into a border, or:
- place the cursor on the "test" line
- go to Format menu > Paragraph
- select the Borders tab
- click the line below the grey rectangle on the left to make it disappear (representing which borders are in place around the paragraph)
- click OK

To turn off this feature, so that dashes don't get turned into a border:
- go to Tools menu > AutoCorrect Options
- select the Options tab
- untick the box next to "Apply border"
(While there, you may want to look at some of the other things AutoCorrect can do for you. Click the "Help" button for explanations.)
- click OK

Mark.
