− | == When lower case text is typed, OpenOffice.org changes the first letter to uppercase. How do reverse this setting? ==
| |
− | This setting is designed to correct sentences mistakenly typed starting with a lower case letter.
| |
− |
| |
− | To reverse this setting:
| |
− |
| |
− | *Select '''Tools-AutoCorrect/AutoFormat-[Options]'''.
| |
− | *Near the top of the list, uncheck the box next to "Capitalize the first letter of every sentence"
| |
− | *Click 'OK' at the bottom of the dialog to apply the change.

| |

| |
− | == When using asterisks [ asterisk = * ], OpenOffice.org removes the asterisks [ * ] and presents the text in bold. How do reverse this setting? ==
| |
− | Typing an asterisk [ * ] before and after a word or words allows for words to be made bold without using
| |
− | the mouse. Similarly, typing an underscore [underscore = _] before and after a word or words allows for words to be underlined.
| |
− |
| |
− | To reverse this setting:
| |
− |
| |
− | *Select '''Tools-AutoCorrect/AutoFormat-[Options]'''
| |
− | *Near the top of the list click the checkbox next to "Automatic *bold* and _underline_" to deselect this choice.
| |
− | *Click 'OK' at the bottom of the dialog to apply the change.

− |
| |
− | == How do you turn off the automatic word completion behavior? ==
| |
− | Open a text document. From the pulldown menus, select:
| |
− | Tools->AutoCorrect/AutoFormat. Select the "Word Completion"
| |
− | tab. Deselect the check box to the left of "Complete Words".
| |
− | Click on OK.
| |
− |
| |
− | == How do you turn off automatic correction and automatic formatting? ==
| |
− | OpenOffice.org is configured by default to perform certain automatic formatting and correction as you type. This can be very useful, but can also lead to unexpected results.
| |
− |
| |
− | You can learn to use this feature, or if you prefer you can turn all or some of the automatic formatting off. You can either:
| |
− |
| |
− | *Turn ALL off/on: under '''Format->AutoFormat->While Typing'''.
| |
− | *Turn some off/on: under '''Tools->AutoCorrect'''.
| |
− |
| |
− | The table below describes some of the default behaviours and which AutoCorrect setting controls them.<br><br>
