I’m using LibreOffice 4.4.1.2, and Windows 7 64-bit. I only use Writer as I have no need of the other programs. I’m wanting to use LibreOffice to beta and proof a novel. I click on Insert, then choose Comment, then I click in the text area I want to point to with the comment, but in the Comment box when I type any characters they are invisible. It was like this before I updated from the previous version, and it is still like this with 4.4.1.2.
Is there a known bug with the Comment text box? Or do I need to do something with the settings?
Additional: I’ve uninstalled LibreOffice completely, restarted the machine, downloaded the latest version and reinstalled. Then I opened a new Writer file, and lo and behold, my old settings were still the same. I had noped that wiping LO from the computer would remove all settings, as that might have been the cause for the text not showing in the Insert > Comment box. But no.
I’ll now remove LibreOffice again and download OpenOffice in the hope that it doesn’t have the same problem.
