Description: after inserting a new input field somewhere in the document, the cursor position ends up right before the field. For other field types, like Date, Author etc., after inserting the cursor position ends up right after the field. Steps to Reproduce: open new document in LibreOffice choose Insert->Fields->More Fields go to tab "functions", select type "Input field", enter a reference and press Insert in the lower box, enter "11111" and press ok Actual Results: the cursor is before "11111", and new text and/or fields are inserted before the "11111" field Expected Results: the cursor is after "11111", and new text and/or fields are inserted after the "11111" field Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.110 Safari/537.36
Well, it *is* an input field so it would be logical to want to input stuff in it, right?
