Re: [libreoffice-users] LO 4.0 vs word editing

Is it just some rendering issue?  If you scroll so that the relevant bit goes off-screen and then 
scroll it back onto the screen then does it figure it out correctly?  
Regards from 
Tom :)

PS I don't happen to have a Win7 machine at home, but was able to check on
a 64-bit Win8 box and, once again, did *not* experience the difficulties
