Re: [libreoffice-users] bug search and replace in half height window

Hi :)
In Gedit (just a text-editor so it's not as fancy as Writer) when i do search it flags up all 
occurences by giving them a yellow background.  The currently selected one has a grey background.  
Since i know what i selected i can shrink the document so that i can barely see the tiny words.  
Just their location is enough for me to see whether to let the replace happen or skip to the next 
one.  I thought Writer would do roughly the same?  

I agree it's a tad annoying if it doesn't automatically scroll to the next one when asked!

On Ubuntu 12.04 with a LO 3.5.4 from the repos (ie not an installed .deb from the TDF downloads 
opage) it does scroll through just fine.  Have you tried renaming your user-profile to see if that 
shakes it loose?  
Regards from
Tom :)
