Hi,
That rings a bell. I have an Acer laptop with a track pad and just
figure it out last night. Same problem.
Here’s what I think may be happening, and it has nothing to do with
LibreOffice. I noticed similar strange behavior the first time I bought and
used a laptop with a trackpad for a mouse. As I typed, crazy things would
happen and, after a while, I realized that my thumb would sometimes
inadvertently touch the trackpad causing an unintended mouse click. The result
of that unintended click would depend on where my mouse cursor happened to be.
You might check to see if your mouse cursor is hovering over the Boldface icon
on the toolbar. If it is, you may be accidentally turning boldface on and off
while you type.
This happened to me so often that I have since gotten into the habit of
deliberately positioning my mouse cursor somewhere on the screen where a mouse
click wouldn’t do anything.
