--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
LibreOffice provides an Autocorrect replacement for entry of "..." with the
Unicode U+2026 HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS glyph that will follow the font handling.

You can delete that and assign a 'New' replacement for ":...:" to enter any
ellipsis format of your choice, perhaps using NBSP Unicode. 
E.g. "U+002eU+00a0U+002eU+00a0U+002eU+00a0" (convert with <Alt>+x and paste)
or "U+002dU+00a0U+002dU+00a0U+002dU+00a0"

Your alternative to use a single glyph would be in finding an OpenType font
offering the U+2026 horizontal ellipsis with stylistic alternate. LibreOffice
supports use of stylistic alternates as well from the Character dialog.


IMHO => WFM
