------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Jan 22 16:22:26 +0000 2009 ------- The Mac release of OpenOffice does a very good job of offering mac-like key combinations for editing actions, so far as I've seen. One pair that seem to be slightly off is the text-selection via Option-Shift arrow and Command-Shift arrow. For those who use these key combos across their mac apps, it is jarring to have them behave inconsistently in Writer. Steps to reproduce (Option-Shift + arrow): 1) Open a document with a few paragraphs in Writer 2) Place the insertion point in the middle of a sentence in the middle of a paragraph. 3) Hold down Option + Shift and hit the left arrow. Result: Nothing happens Expected Result: The word to the left of the insertion point is usually selected in most Mac OS X apps. Likewise with Option-Shift right arrow the following word would usually be selected. - - - - - - - - - - - Steps to Reproduce (Cmd-Shift + arrow): 1) Same setup as above, same placement of insertion point. 2) Hold down Command + Shift and hit the left arrow. Result: The word to the left of the insertion point is selected. Expected Result: All the text from the insertion point to the beginning of the line is normally selected. Likewise with Command-Shift + right arrow, all text to the end of the line would be. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
