Description jakechambers97 2021-12-16 15:57:19 UTC
Description:
Apparently this is as old as the hills, but it would be good to get it fixed as it's causing me some strife - using the LO Zotero plug-in can result in large chunks of my text ending up inside citations, leading to annoying dialog boxes when I try to insert new ones and necessitating aggravating shuffling-around of the text to fix it, which seems to unpredictably resolve the problem at some random point.

Actual Results:
Use Zotero plug-in to cite references in text, will occur at some early stage.

Expected Results:
Paragraphs end up inside the citation field, making the next citation difficult as you are prompted by a dialog box requesting to amend the text.


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Citation should be restricted to the superscript number only (I'm using Vancouver referecne style).

Hello,

Thank you for reporting the bug. Can you please confirm if the issue still exists in the latest build?


Could you please try to reproduce it with a master build from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/ ?
You can install it alongside the standard version.

I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the master build.
