Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 87369
"Format > Autoformat > Apply" does not apply replace list to document
Last modified: 2008-09-29 11:03:42 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1 open new document 2 type: dei 3 save document 4 check: Tools > Autocorrect > Replace: In the list: dei -> die 5 check: Tools > Autocorrect > Options > [m] [x] Use replacement table 6 Format > Autoformat > Apply Nothing happens. I could reproduce the behaviour on Linux with 2.3 as well.
Duplicate of issue 87368 or the other way around.
Reassigned to SBA.
Works without a problem in OOo 2.4.1 (linux) → worksforme. Feel free to reopen the bug if the bug still occurs in a current version. Also note that the autocorrect feature depends on the correct language to be applied to the text. So the dei → die replacement would only work if the text is formatted as being german text.
It does only work if style was set to "standard": then style is changed and replacement works. Within the same style: no change and no replace.
I tried it with 2.4.1 Now it works. Thanks to the developers :)
Thanks for the comment. Closing issue.
