Problem description: Steps to reproduce: 1. ....open any .odt file 2. ....edit somewhere near the middle then close the file. 3. ....reopen the file and the cursor is not at edit point. Current behavior: When opening a document for editing the cursor is always at the top of the document and not where the cursor was when it was last saved. Expected behavior: The cursor should be at the location when the file was saved. It is easy to move to the top (or bottom) of a document but it can be annoying if the edit is in progress in the middle of the document and editing is interrupted for any reason.

Confirmed with: LO 4.1.0.0.beta2 Build ID: 33224f4f11a05cfad2249e812fcc2975fbb61f6 Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit

When reopening a file, the cursor is at the location where it was when you closed it, if and only if, you have filed your personal data in Menu Tools > Options > LibreOffice > User Data. Works as expected for me since ages. Closing as WorkForMe. Best regards. JBF
