2.0b7.1--"Edit Citation" Does Not Keep Changes in Open Office
For some reason when I edit a footnote in OpenOffice Writer using the edit citation feature I lose all previous changes to the note under certain conditions:
(1) Click Hide Editor then Click Show Editor
(2) Click Multiple Source
Also clicking Hide/Show Editor or Single/Multiple Source causes the window to change size and position. It's bizonkers!

EDITED. I edited by adding this line. Wouldn't it be rather unhandy if the discussion forum wiped out your entire first composition if you needed to edit for clarity? Should there be OP guidelines that require you to get your entire post right the first time or be wiped out? Okay. If you can design a discussion interface that doesn't wipe out your comments, why not a footnote interface. Is it that hard?
