[Solved] Page display on screen has changed

Post by Penlady »

Hello,
I have looked through other posts similar to mine. They all mention a toolbar at the bottom of the page. I don't have that. I must have clicked something wrong, because my pages started showing up as offset. I tried to post a picture of it. I guess I don't know how. When I click the picture icon above, I just see {img} twice. I hoped to show you that I have no toolbar at the bottom, and how one page is on the top right of the screen, and the next page is on the bottom left of the screen, If I add a third page, the first page is on the top right, and the next 2 pages are side by side under it. How do I get back to seeing the pages in line with each other, how do I get the necessary toolbar to show up in order to fix the problem?

I'm using 4.1.0 version on Windows 7 Chrome. Why does my signature keep reverting back to version 3.3? I keep changing it. That might have been the version I had when I first joined 12 years ago, but that's not what I have now.
TIA!!

The bar at the bottom is called the status bar. You can show or hide it using View - Status bar, in LibreOffice that's the 5th item from above.

Re your second question, you can only use the img tag if you want to link to an image somewhere on the Internet. But you want to upload an attachment. For that, use the Attachments tab below the pane where you enter your post.

THANK YOU FLORIS V! I opened the status bar and found where to make it show a single page at a time. I appreciate your time and energy!

Without the status bar: View (menu) → Zoom → Single page
