Description: I am using LibreOffice Writer to proofread an already written text. If I have a sentence to change, for example I want to delete something and write something else, I place the pointer on the text I want to delete, I delete it, then I press the space bar, but the pointer remains next to the last word and it adds more spaces next to the following word. See an example: ORIGINAL TEXT "center and tonifies the heart... " MY ACTION: I have deleted the ending "er" of center and replaced it with "re", then I give space RESULTING SENTENCE: "centreand tonifies the heart" If the pointer is next to "centre" and I press the space bar, the pointer remains still and moves forward the following words. I hope I was clear enough and you can fix this, because it doubles the proofreading, as I also have to correct the system's mistakes. Thanks Steps to Reproduce: 1. Original text that I want to edit: "center or tonifies the heart... " 2. I have deleted the ending "er" of the word "center" and replaced it with "re" and the word "or" to replace it with "and", then I press the space bar 3. Resulting sentence, after my change: "centreand tonifies the heart" --> the pointer remains next to the previous word, even if I press the space bar. It moves forward the following words. Actual Results: 3. Resulting sentence, after my change: "centreand tonifies the heart" --> the pointer remains next to the previous word, even if I press the space bar. It moves forward the following words. I have to manually go back, press the space bar again to split the words "centre and" and then move forward and delete the spaces. Expected Results: I'd like to press the space bar and get the pointer to move forward, so that I can write and have two separate words.
