Description Olivier Hallot 2013-01-24 09:11:08 UTC
As explained in info list circa 1/24/2013, subject: "LibreOffice para tradutores profissionais"

There is a need for professional translators to be informed of the column position of the cursor in the text.

This information should be dislayed in the status bar.

I searched and can't find any related duplicate of this enhancement; Set bug status to NEW.
Comment 2 Philippe 2013-01-30 08:35:55 UTC
I confirm the need for this feature for translators, especially for those working on subtitles as there is usually a limit on the number of characters per subtitle line. Without this feature, LibreOffice Writer is just not usable for these people.
