Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 53804
General UI: 1 click to edit field when radio buttons/edit fields are combined

Open Writer (or Impress). In Format -->Paragraph -->Tab you should be able to specify a custom fill-in character by just typing it in the appropriate field. Actual behaviour: you cannot insert a character in the field unless you select "Character" from the list before. Desired behaviour: when clicking in the field on the right of "Character", the field is activated and "Character" is automatically selected from the list on the left. [Reported by ALex during Italian QA tests]
ES->MMP: as discussed Format -Paragraph -Tab is not the only dialog showing this problem. We also Found: - File - Print - Print range - View - Zoom Proposal: the edit field should always be enabled. Clicking in it would select the corresponding option.
