--- Comment #5 from [email protected] --- Okay, obviously that is how Open Office works, and it's documented to work that way. But that doesn't answer my question. Why? Why doesn't simply clicking a cell also mark that cell? Is there a use case that would specifically require the ability to select a cell without marking it? And even if there is, it doesn't seem applicable to the search/replace (current selection only) operation. And since the copy to clipboard operation is smart enough to know to copy only the selected cell if no cells are marked, I would think that search/replace operation should also work that way. Try this: Open the search dialog and click the "More Options" button. With the dialog open, click on an empty cell. Note that the "Current selection only" checkbox gets disabled. This makes sense since there is currently no selected content to search. Now, with the dialog still open, try clicking on a cell that has data (but don't mark it). The "Current selection only" checkbox is re-enabled. This strongly implies that there IS now selected content to search and that choosing this option will work on the selected (unmarked) cell. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
