I am editing a document. I turn on "track changes" and I turn off "show changes" so I can make sure the spacing and other matters are appropriate. Every time I save the document, Writer activates "show changes" again so I have to turn it off again. This is very annoying, and new behavior with version 5.
I can not confirm with Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 2511a21841dd9dec735a53add8174e47d24deb88 TinderBox: Win-x86@62-merge-TDF, Branch:MASTER, Time: 2015-10-13_23:26:46
Would you like to see a video of it happening? Possibly it is because you are not testing with the same version I am using. My version information: Version: 5.0.2.2 Build ID: 37b43f919e4de5eeaca9b9755ed688758a8251fe Locale: en-CA (en_CA)
I should note that there is no option on the form to choose the version I am using, so I chose the latest version I could see. Sorry for any confusion this caused.
Sorry: found the version now. Will update the bug info
I can not confirm with version 5.0.2.2 (x64) too. Win7. For the test, could you rename your LibreOffice directory profile (see https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile) and give it a new try? Thank you
I cannot save the edited file although I am the only user of this computer and I have changed the directory's settings to allow edits. I keep getting a message that I need admin permissions, which I have. I am going to try uninstalling Libre Office, blowing away any remaining directories, and installing again.
Here, by the way, is the bootstrap file contents. It seems to be pointing to version 4 as my UserInstallation location. I had 4 installed and upgraded to 5. [ErrorReport] ErrorReportPort=80 ErrorReportServer=report.libreoffice.org [Bootstrap] InstallMode=<installmode> ProductKey=LibreOffice 5.0 UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/LibreOffice/4
Uninstalled Libre Office. Blew away v. 4 directory. Reinstalled v. 5. Same error. bootstrap file still points to a location in v. 4 (which does not now exist, of course), and I still cannot edit it. Getting the same bad behavior as initially reported.
Are you saving as docx? If yes, set as resolved duplicate of bug 89991
