Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 84178
writer does not disengage italic formatting
Last modified: 2007-12-03 08:33:36 UTC
in the course of writing, when trying to turn off italic formatting, either through the keyboard shortcut or the menu bar button, the option refuses to disengage. user is forced to turn on italics through selection of a certain portion of text. replication: 1. begin writing a sentence, then turn on italics. 2. after typing a few characters, use the keyboard shortcut to return to normal formatting (ctrl+i), or use the menu bar button to try to turn off italics. 3. the writer will refuse to disengage. i have noticed that this case only holds true if the previous character in typing is italic. for example, highlighting the second to last character in a sentence, placing the cursor just after it, and trying to turn off italics will produce the same result.
Known problem, already fixed in OO 2.3.1 release candidate. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 81764 ***
