I'm having the opposite problem: 1/2 does not auto-convert to ½ as it once did. How do I get that function to work?
Also, I've never been able to get hyphenation to work. I deleted & reloaded dictionaries, and even uninstalled and re-installed AOO, but no go. (And no, I haven't redone my profile.) Cheers, Maurice Howe -----Original Message----- From: Dale Erwin [mailto:d...@casaerwin.org] Sent: Friday, January 11, 2013 3:23 PM To: users@openoffice.apache.org Subject: Auto Format I have been trying for some time now to find how to regulate or change or even disable this behavior. It does not happen in open text, but only in a table. iF I type a fraction, when I tab out of the box, it seems to change it into a date. For example if I type 1/64 it changes it to 01/01/64, or 1/32 is changed to 01/01/32. Oddly enough, if I type 1/16 it changes it to 01/16/13. If, after this happens, I go to the Edit menu and select "Undo Auto Format" (or something like that), it changes it back to the original fraction, BUT IT PLACES THE CURSOR BACK AND IT IS CHANGED AGAIN TO A DATE WHEN I TAB OUT. Sorry for raising my voice, but I wanted that part noticed. Can someone please tell me where to find the control for this behavior so that I can disable it? -- Dale Erwin Jr. 28 de Julio 657, Depto. 03 Magdalena del Mar, Lima 17 PERU http://leather.casaerwin.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org ----- No virus found in this message.
