I confirm it with Version: 7.5.0.0.beta1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 3aca23eec42e9d6fbe57071d7633ae1fc4bc5fcc CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: en-US (de_DE); UI: en-GB Calc: CL threaded Works as expected without recording changes. No tracking of Capitalize Every Word in Versie: 6.3.0.4 (x86) Build ID: 057fc023c990d676a43019934386b85b21a9ee99 CPU-threads: 4; Besturingssysteem: Windows 6.3; UI-render: GL; VCL: win; Locale: nl-NL (nl_NL); UI-taal: nl-NL Calc: CL |
1. Create a new text document 2. Type lorem 3. Press F3 => a "Lorem ipsum" 3-paragraph autotext is inserted 4. Edit->Track Changes->Record 5. Select all (Ctrl+A) 6. Format->Text->Capitalize Every Word 7. Undo (Ctrl+Z) => only the second word ot the last paragraph ("velit") gets restored. 8. Look at undo list (in the Undo button's drop-down) => tens of Delete "foo" entries there. Why "Delete", not "Replace", by the way? 9. Press and hold Ctrl+Z to undo one-by-one everything. => it only undoes the last paragraph and a small part of the second paragraph, because undo stack ends (org.openoffice.Office.Common/Undo/Steps is 100 by default). Compare to what UPPERCASE does: when executed in step 6 instead of Capitalize Every Word, it creates three undo operations, one for each paragraph. Well, also not ideal, but per-paragraph is way better than per-word. Ideally, it would be best to have the same single undo operation that appears when change tracking is not used. But at least, make it no worse than UPPERCASE.
