Java sidebar extensions and LibreOffice

[Andrew Pitonyak]

I see where you go to the end of the document, but I don't see you placing the cursor at the start.

I expect you to first go to the start with no selection and then Juno to the end with selection.

I suspect that you are simply setting  paragraph properties on the last  paragraph.

That said, it is difficult for me to read the code on my phone....

You may need  to enumerate the content (paragraphs) and set each paragraph or supported text content areas especially of your content is complex; for example, containing tables or frames.
