closing bracket is carried on to next line

cmo
Hey,

[edit: this is clearly an openoffice issue as it does it to brackets in normal text too]

I'm using IEEE style, latest zotero 2.0.3 openoffice 3.2.0, archlinux, and when my citation is at the end of a line the closing bracket will get carried onto the next line. This is not fun.

example:
blah blah blah etc typey type words text [23
]. type paragraph word grammar blah blah.

any ideas?
cheers,
simon

    Same thing here... See also my comment to your post here: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?p=385645 the Zotero field cuted is very annoying. The brackets on the start of a line is annoying too.

    Yes, it sounds like it's an Open Office issue. In the new CSL processor, we could possibly add a word joiner before and after parens, braces and brackets when used in affixes, which should force the word processor to behave correctly in this situation.

    Hi!

    Thank you for the tip. I will consider using word joiner in my Zotero styles. But, as Simon said, the problem is also with normal text (instead of Zotero fields).

    It sounds like a huge openoffice bug to me.
