Created attachment 51258 [details]
a swf video of what happens and when.

so when i write ----- and push enter, it will transform into a line (this is ok), but
it will suddenly come to many lines when i push enter before that line. and i can't remove the last line

a video of that is attached.

This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:

Thanks for bugreport

It is because Writer has no character "Horizontal line". Instead, used paragraph with enabled bottom border.

For remove unneeded horizontal lines:
1. Place text cursor on that line or select several lines
2. Format->Paragraph or right mouse click ->Paragraph
3. tab "Borders"
4. on top left on dialog "Paragraph" click first square, border disappears
5. click Ok.

Probably works as documented (as the line is at the end of the paragraph, but is rather unintuitive. CC'ing Astron, to that this to dicussion with UX.
Comment 9 Stefan Knorr (astron) 2012-08-16 19:48:25 UTC 
Resolving as duplicate, because the subject matter is so similar. (The other bug relates more to undo, this one relates to removing the feature – but I tend to agree more with the other one...)
