Removing borders in libreoffice writer [closed]

Tags:

libreoffice

I created a LibreOffice Writer document, and copied some text from a web page.

Now whenever I create a bulleted list, the items have a top and bottom black border.

I can remove the border using Format - Paragraph - Borders - none, but then the border just jumps to the next or previous item.

How can I get rid of this strange phenomenon, without writing the entire text in a new document?

If you want to remove more than one character, you have to enter ' +'(spacespace+). Then click the 'Replace All' button. This will remove all the empty spaces in your document.

I know this thread is already dead but if someone does stumble upon this thread while trying to solve this problem, here's my suggestion:

Go to View and from there uncheck "Text borders".

None of the above worked for me.

What did work was to go to Tools - Options, then click on the "+" beside "LibreOffice" - go down to "Appearance" and click on it.

At the top of the white box on the right, uncheck "text boundaries" - then click on "okay."
