  • Open Office help

    I use Open Office.org Writer for all my writing needs, and my problem, while not huge, is driving me nuts. I can't get the default formatting to stay customized. Every time I open it I have to reset the format to the way I like it. I've come to the conclusion that a permanent change is either a)impossible or b) mind bogglingly obvious. As I am perfectly capable of losing something I am holding in my hand, I figured I'd ask here for help before I give up.

    What format are you trying to get it to stick to? (I use Open Office as well)

      I want my lines double spaced, and I want my paragraphs to automatically indent, and I don't want to have to set it my self every damn time.

          Actually, look up your styles. I don't have the time to provide a detailed answer, but you want to change your default styles, not just your regular styles. If this isn't enough, I'll be providing a better answer in a few hours (sorry, taking care of some home stuff first!).

            HA! That worked, thank you. I told you it was blindingly obvious.

              And I, in the meantime, have learned today. I was wrong about it being styles.

              Thank you for the lesson
