<pre>Description:
When entering a (neutral) quotation mark, LibreOffice correctly put left
double-angle quotes and a non-breaking space at the beginning of word, and the
right kind at the end of a word.
This rule fails in case of word preceded by an article or any other word with
single quote (articles et autres mots élidés : l', qu0, ). It rightly convert
the apostrophe into a curly single quote, then considers it as the end of the
word and put a right double-angle quote instead of a left one.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a writer document using French language
2. Write something like this :
présenté comme l'"aumônier de ...
Actual Results:
... l’»aumônier ...
Expected Results:
... l’«aumônier ...
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
This problem has been there for ages, and it is the same in Microsoft Word, as
far as I have observed.
Work around : type a space between and delete it later
l' "aumônier ... > l’ «aumônier > manually delete this additional space
The problem concerns all these French articles, prepositions or adverbs
finishing with a "e" letter which is replaced by an apostrophe before a vowel,
without space after the apostrophe (le, de, que, ...)</pre>
