Description Leo H 2013-11-02 00:56:36 UTC
LibreOffice Package: libreoffice 1:4.1.2~rc3-0ubuntu1
Libre Office Version: 4.1.2.3
Build ID: 410m0(Build:3)
System: Xubuntu 13.10, 32 bit, fully patched

LibreOffice Writer > Tools > Options > LibreOffice Writer > Comparison

The user selection made under the heading "Compare documents" ("Auto" / "By word" / "By Character") does not stick. After closing and restarting Witer, this setting is always automatically returned to "Auto".

Yet, this is not a setting defined as per-document or per-instance only.

This user setting should be permanent (until the user deliberately chooses to change it).

Indeed, confirmed with LibreOffice 4.1.4.0.0+ under Ubuntu 13.10 x86-64
