Description: When I click on my L/O document, to return to it from a different window, if I hit a blank spot, the entire paragraph moves to "Align Right." This did NOT happen, until that *Vertical Bar with the BLACK triangle* was put into LibreOffice Writer. The *Vertical Bar with the BLACK triangle* follows my cursor and is very distracting. I HATE IT. Can you please tell me how I can get rid of it? Thank you. Steps to Reproduce: (A) 1.Open 2 documents with normal amounts of text filling them. 2.Switch from one to the other, using a blank space at the end of a paragraph. 3.Watch the whole paragraph change to "Align Right." > (B) 1.Move cursor around in the document, to any blank space. 2.Watch the *Vertical Bar with the BLACK triangle* follow everywhere there is a blank spot. Actual Results: (A) The whole paragraph changed to "Align Right." (B) Get annoyed as the *Vertical Bar with the BLACK triangle* follows everywhere there's a blank spot! Expected Results: Please tell me how to GET RID of the *Vertical Bar with the BLACK triangle*!!!!!!
