Let's say we have a series of words separated by commas in a LibreOffice Writer odt document:
"water, air, fire, sky, cloud, rain, snow, ice, wind, sun, moon, star, mountain..."
What is the easiest method to list them in a LO Writer table separated by rows?
Trying to convert them to table (Table → Convert → Text to table → Separate text at "Other" → selecting , - the result is that the words are separated by columns (where the commas where), but not by rows.
How to separate them by rows so that they appear as a list?
I am going to do that a lot, that's why I am looking for the "easiest way". I do have a solution but I don't find it easy enough. I am posting it below as an example:
As things are, the "convert to table" option only has options applicable to an existing list with each word on a separate line.
To create the correct lines I have used the addon/extension called "Alternative searching" to replace the spaces between words with Paragraph (ending): p.
Then, the method Table → Convert → Text to table → Separate text at Paragraph works.
