Operation Manual

Graphics, Drawing Objects, and other items. In Impress and Draw it shows Slides, Pictures, and
other items.
To open the Navigator, click the Navigator icon on the Standard toolbar, or press the F5 key, or go
to View > Navigator on the Menu bar, or click the Navigator icon in the Sidebar.
In a default installation of LibreOffice, the Navigator is part of the Sidebar.
Click the marker (+ or triangle) by any of the categories to display the list of objects in that
category.
The Navigator provides several convenient ways to move around a document and find items in it:
• When a category is showing the list of objects in it, double-click on an object to jump
directly to that object’s location in the document.
• Objects are much easier to find if you have given them recognizable names when creating
them, instead of keeping the default names, for example Sheet1, Table1, Table2, and so
on. The default names may not correspond to the actual position of the object in the
document.
• Each Navigator in the individual LibreOffice components has a different range of functions.
These functions are further explained in the user guide for each LibreOffice component.

Undoing and redoing changes
To undo the most recent change in a document, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Z, or click the
Undo icon on the Standard toolbar, or go to Edit > Undo on the Menu bar. Click the small triangle
to the right of the Undo icon to get a list of all the changes that can be undone. You can select
multiple changes and undo them at the same time.
After changes have been undone, you can redo changes. To redo a change use the keyboard
shortcut Ctrl+Y, or click the Redo icon, or go to Edit > Redo on the Menu bar. As with Undo, click
on the triangle to the right of the arrow to get a list of the changes that can be reapplied.
To modify the number of changes LibreOffice remembers, go to Tools > Options > LibreOffice >
Memory on the Menu bar. In the Undo section increase or decrease the Number of steps. Be
aware that asking LibreOffice to remember more changes consumes more computer memory.
