Description Steve-oh 2023-01-24 19:30:33 UTC
Description:
I don't understand why you need a Summery that's so remarkably detailed then you've a Description area as well, however - AS I've already said when using Find and Replace, and Specifically clicking the central 'Format' button - it's Frozen solid.
Sadly this is far from the first editing option that I've chosen, and had this happen. Fortunately today I felt like creating yet again, another acct. someplace w/ log-in information that I've had to record.
I do not recall the last 'couple' of things that produced the Exact same result, only I Know that in each case it was something different that I was attempting to do/use. I believe the last time it was (only a few days ago) changing margins perhaps. I'm not sure. I trained on Quark years ago. Text editing is peaceful tbh. TMI.
FYI and all that... it's a real issue - all this freezing. About ready to just toss it back. 0.o

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a fresh document, and paste in some text.
2.Access Edit/Find and Replace
3.Click on Format...  button center-low on the window

Actual Results:
Frozen

Expected Results:
I expected it to freeze.
When a given function manages to freeze in LibreOffice, it seems to be rather consistent.


Reproducible: Sometimes

Pardon me for quoting myself.
"I don't understand why you need a Summery that's so remarkably detailed then you've a Description area as well, however - AS I've already said when using Find and Replace, and Specifically clicking the central 'Format' button - it's Frozen solid..."

Again I apologize. The '...it's Frozen' meant simply that the entire program was frozen solid. I realize that this is no doubt implied however it is lacking.
