Hi *,

Issue 7747 is about Ctrl-A which doesn't work with a table at the very beginning of a document. There are some ideas for work arounds, but there are cases where it gives quite some trouble.

In his comments from Fri Dec 6 11:01:46 +0000 2002 mru explains that it is not easy to fix: "Complete redesign of table concept will be necessary (about one year of development)."

Since we are 5 yrs later and some things changed in OOo code, I would like to ask if this situation still holds.
There is no complete redesign of the table concept necessary. But there are a lot of potential problems in our code if we simply change the selection mechanism. My current plan is to tackle this problem for OOo3.0 beta. I will change this selection mechanism and solve all immediately occurring problems. But then this changes have to be tested very well because I expect side effects which I will not be able to find during the implementation itself.
That's why we need a real beta phase for this issues (7747 and 17949).
Thanks for any reply,
Cor

You're welcome
 Andreas
