Description Harald Koester 2013-11-11 15:03:22 UTC
Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
[1] Open a new text document.
[2] Disable option “LibreOffice Writer → Formatting Aids → Cursor in protected areas“.
[3] Type in some text. Then Enter.
[4] Type in another word and mark this word. No Enter!
[5] Insert a section within the marked word and protect the section. 
[6] Now it is not possible to insert a paragraph below the section. Expected: It should be possible to move the cursor after the last character of the section. Then Alt+Enter should insert a new paragraph below the section.

I have tested this. You could not add a new row after the section, when the section is protected and the cursor isn't allowed in protected areas.
It's the same behavior in LO 3.0.0. beta1, so I set the first version as Inherited from OOo. It's also the same in LO 4.2.0.0 from 2013-11-07.
I have tested with OpenSuSE 12.3 64bit Linux. So I set the platform to all.

Checked again with 5.4.2. Bug still exists in version 5.4.2 (64 Bit, Win 10). 

The name of the option is changed a bit: "... > Formatting Aids > Protected Areas > Enable cursor".
