Re: [libreoffice-users] automatic fractions

Sorry i thought i had replied to list but it seems i was mistaken. Ive got it sussed now, i have to 
*double click* in the cell and then *add a space* after the fraction before pressing ctrlZ (as the 
fraction was the only text in the cell, i didn't think to do either of these). Then it works just 
as i need it to. Thanks for your help.

 You have to use Ctrl+Z really _immediately_
 after 1/2 was replaced by ½. 
 If you have
 already written further characters or have exit edit mode,
 
 it will not work.
 
 Kind regards
