Space bar deletes characters

Post by RCJ9966 »

Hello everyone, im having an issue related to put an space between two characters or words. For example "ThankYou" if i put an space between the "Thank" and "You" its gonna delete the Y to make the space, if i hit the space bar again its gonna delete the letter "o" to make a new space and its gonna keep deleting everything written to the right successively
other ex:
Helloeveryone
Hello veryone
Notworking
Not orking

Any ideas? thanks in advance

Do you have overtype mode enabled?

Type your sample sentence again. Position the cursor where you want to add the space. Before you press the space bar, press the "Insert" key on your keyboard. See if that changes the way it acts.

FreeOffice Writer displays the status of Insert/Overtype on the status bar at the bottom of the scree, as in this screen shot (If this doesn't look like yours, it because I prefer the classic menu interface rather than the ribbon):
