Description alignedtraining 2023-06-18 14:27:52 UTC
Description:
One after another tiny annoying things are happening to LibreOffice The key two are 
Firstly, click on a line and the cursor used to go to the end of that line .. now it inserts spurious spaces causing chaos in a document 
Secondly, randomly it right justifies a line .. to the point this is becoming unworkable as a tool 


Steps to Reproduce:
1. click anyone beyond the end of the text on a line ..   spaces are entered 
2.
3.

Actual Results:
spurious spaces appear that then need finding and deleting 

Expected Results:
tidying up a document that is randomly being corrupted is very annoying and time consuming 


Reproducible: Always
