Hidden Paragraphs

Shows or hides hidden paragraphs. This option only affects the screen display of hidden paragraphs, and not the printing of hidden paragraphs.

To access this command...

Note Icon

To enable this feature, choose - LibreOffice Writer - Formatting Aids, and ensure that the Hidden paragraphs check box in the Display of area is selected.


Use the field command "Hidden Paragraph" to assign a condition that must be met to hide a paragraph. If the condition is not met, the paragraph is displayed.

When you hide a paragraph, footnotes and frames that are anchored to characters in the paragraph are also hidden.
