If you open a .txt file in Write, do LibreOffice formatting (e.g., creating a table), and Save, it is saved as a .txt file and all the formatting is lost. No warning is given this will happen.
I think it is your settings. To enable the warning put a tick at: Tools -> Options -> Load/Save -> General -> Default File Format and ODF Settings -> Warn when not saving in ODF or default format

If I use Debian's LO version, I can reproduce the bug. But there this option is disabled by default. In LO's own version, it is enabled ... ;) OS: Debian Testing AMD 64 LO: Version: 5.1.4.1 Build-ID: 1:5.1.4~rc1-1 CPU-Threads: 4; BS-Version: Linux 4.5; UI-Render: Standard; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8) (Debian's version) Version: 5.2.0.0.beta2+ Build ID: 32ecf73b9f26e74f72086bf43a72244c165a391c CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Linux 4.5; UI Render: default; TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@70-TDF, Branch:libreoffice-5-2, Time: 2016-06-14_08:30:46 Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8) and Version: 5.3.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: a8bd44573b75d1399257d6f5d052611439607189 CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Linux 4.5; UI Render: default; TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@70-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2016-06-13_23:46:49 Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8) (the last two are parallel installed, following the instructions from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/Linux) @reevesca: which operating system are you using and which LO version? Could you have a look at the option Daniel mentioned in comment 2, please? TIA Thomas.
I am running MacOS 10.11.5 (latest version of El Capitan) on a 2008 MacPro. The setting is indeed there, but it is under Preferences -> Load/Save. I've checked the box, but have not yet checked to see if it works. Thanks.
