When Writer is opened with the default user interface, there is no "General" tab.

There are many dialogs that can be invoked from Writer, many of which have a "General" tab.  I can't easily guess which one you are referring to.

> 2.Press the "Help" button
> 3.Look in the help section in the online page that opens up.
Would you please be more specific about your steps?  Which menu items or toolbar buttons did you click?  Or which keyboard shortcut did you press?

Thanks for the quick reply.

Now I'm able to find the help page you are referring to, and can confirm this bug still exists for 7.1 (a new heading was added, but still no explanation):
