I updated not too long ago. In the previous installed version I had turned this off. In the version installed now I can't find the optionbox. ):

Version: 5.3.0.3 (x64) BS-Version: Windows 6.1; UI-Render: Standard; Layout-Engine: neu; Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); Calc: single

I'm 100% sure in the version installed before it was possible to turn off this replacement distinctly, so complete turning off of autocorrection or completion or whatever it is called was not necessary.

I don't want to turn off the whole autcorrection or completion or whatever! (Only this totally superfluous three-dot-character!)

(Edit) Turning off the option 'autocorrection during entry' ("AutoKorrektur -> Während der Eingabe") turns off the replacing. But I don't want to turn of everything.

Removing every instance, that is in every language version listed, of the replacement needles .*... and ... from the autocorrection options ("AutoKorrektur -> AutoKorrektur-Optionen...") didn't help either. Program restart didn't change anything. For a test trying to remove something easier from only the German language versions like :Bus vorne: didn't have any effect either. (Another 2 hours wasted.)

I would say: Definitly a bug. Someone report it on their website please.

In the version installed now I can't find the optionbox.

  1. Go to "Menu" > "Tools" > "Options" > "Language Settings" > "English sentence checking"

  2. In the "Punctuation" block uncheck "Ellipsis"

  3. Click "OK"

Note:

  • The menu item names and dialog box entry names and text may be different in the German version of LibreOffice.

I'm regularly updating via chocolatey to:

Version: 5.4.0.3 (x64)
Build-ID: 7556cbc6811c9d992f4064ab9287069087d7f62c
CPU-Threads: 8; Betriebssystem:Windows 6.19; UI-Render: GL; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE); Calc: group

And here it is at the same menu position as David Postill mentioned.
(Extras/Optionen/Spracheinstellungen/Englische Satzkontrolle/Dreifachpunkte) enter image description here

Seems to be a bug when using Libreoffice with a document in German language or with the program's language set to German.
