Ok, in openoffice the tab (and the option) is called "Drop caps".
1) type some lines of text 2) put the cursor somewhere inside this paragraph 3) Menu "Format > Paragraph", tab "Drop Caps", activate "Display Drop Caps" Now you see the gray background of the "Initial" or "Drop Cap". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/778038 Title: gray background for "initial" letters -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
