Extending these behaviours (defocusing slightly from the original subject of
this bug):
In Apple TextEdit.app 1.5 (244), working with a single sentence paragraph that
wraps to three lines within the window, double-click (select) a
mid-sentence word within the second line then:
* command-shift-left then right
— effectively extends the selection … first, to the far left of that one line;
then from the far left to the far right of that one (mid) line
— without extending to upper or lower lines within that one-sentence paragraph.
Comparing with TextWrangler 2.3 (262), Microsoft Word 2008 and Safari 3.1.2
(5525.20.1), all three differ from the behaviour of TextEdit. I
sometimes prefer Apple's TextEdit as a comparator but in this new example, the
behaviours of TextWrangler, Word and (probably most
significantly) WebKit-based Safari do *feel* more intuitive, more consistent
with the original subject of this bug. Here now in Safari:
* command-shift-left then right
— effectively extends the selection … first, _from the mid-point_ to the far
left of that one line
— then, _from the mid-point_ (NOT from the far left) to the far right of that
one (mid) line.
= Summary =
1) I concur with apieroni.
2) If there arises doubt about behaviour of
* command-shift left then right
or
* command-shift right then left
I should tend towards the examples set by Safari, TextWrangler and Word.
= Priority =
Issues such as this are not as obvious as crashes, but I realise now (after
some years of using OpenOffice.org) that these things do nebulously
make OOo 'not feel quite right' to seasoned users of key combinations. Before
now, I have never pinned down that feeling. It's good now to
pin down the inconsistencies.
