Issue ID: 126695
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Tabs that bisect words and result in a new line result
in wonky drag-selection of text.
Product: Writer
Version: 4.2.0-dev
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows 10
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 (lowest)
Component: editing
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Environment:
Windows 10 64-bit
AOO420m1(Build:9800) - Rev. 1692551
Issue:
If I use the tab key to bisect a word (press tab with the cursor in the middle
of a word), and the tab results in a newline being created, trying to use
drag-selection of the left word segment results in the right-most letter not
being highlighted. Drag-selecting leftwards or rightwards both have the issue.
Animation showing the behavior in action: http://i.imgur.com/knCGqgD.gifv
I press tab in the middle of "maecenas" and try to highlight "maec" but it
gives me issues with the letter c.
Steps to replicate:
- Go to tools > Options > OpenOffice Writer > General
- Set tab stops to something large like 2,50" (inches) to facilitate tabs that
result in new lines.
- Press OK
- Use the tab key to bisect a word (so "elephant" becomes "elep hant" for
example) but the tabbing action has to result on "hant" being on a new line.
- Attempt to highlight "elep" using dragging left or right.
- It will behave oddly during the highlighting process and not quite work
right.
- Attempt to put the cursor after the letter p by clicking to the right of it
- It will place the cursor immediately to the left of the letter p.
