Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 11265
Selective Word Count
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
There is a need to have a dedicated word count feature, which is able to do partial/selective word counts as in all commercial packages. While it is possible to word count for the whole document by looking at document properties, this feature is inadequate. The user should be able to highlight a paragraph or section and do a word count on that section alone. This feature is necessary for students writing essays and others who need to stick to a limit in their documents.
