Here's another #LibreOffice feature you might not know about! If you're looking for a feature but can't find it in the menu, go to Help ▸ Search Commands (or use the shortcut ⇧ Shift + Esc). Type a few letters and you can see where in the menu to find it! 👍 #foss #opensource #tip

wtf. This would have saved me so much time in the past years.

10 years and still cant use your program because it isn't compatible with Word docs.
in reply to Chris Rosenau

Maybe you're thinking of something else? LibreOffice has been able to open and save in Microsoft's formats for many years. Millions of people use it to share documents with Microsoft Office users. So saying it's "not compatible" isn't true at all.

I've been using Libre Office for a couple of years now. Am very happy with it and won't ever go back to Windows

It is an amazing feature that in my case always causes hard crash of libreoffice. Just use Shift+Esc and then use arrow up or down and... boom!

@gawron Hi! Are you using the latest release of LibreOffice 24.2.4? If so, and it still crashes, please let our QA community know with a quick bug report at bugs.documentfoundation.org – Thanks! 😊

@ninguem Sounds like a good idea! You can submit it as an enhancement request on bugs.documentfoundation.org – But of course, as we're a volunteer-driven project with limited resources, the more help we get to implement it, the better 😊
