------- Additional comments from [email protected] Mon Oct 19 09:49:20 +0000 2009 ------- Try the following: - create a new empty writer-document - place a table in the text with at least 2 columns (it doesn't care, if there is any text arround or not) - run the following Basic code: cellRange = ThisComponent.getTextTables().getByIndex(0).getCellRangeByName("A1:B1") ThisComponent.getCurrentController().select(cellRange) => You'll see there is a selection of the cells A1 and B1 - just change the code slightly to: ThisComponent.getTextTables().getByIndex(0).getCellRangeByName("A1:A1") ThisComponent.getCurrentController().select(cellRange) => You'll see there's only the cursor placed in A1 but actually cell A1 is not selected This behaviour has several unnatural consequenses: 1. the clipboard/transferable-content will not be the same if one tries to work with it after performing a selection 2. if one works with getSelection() he'll receive a table-cursor if A1:B1 is selected and a text-cursor if A1 is selected This issue occurs also with OOo3.1.1. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
