It cannot be a straight column segment with > horizontal extensions where there are merged cells. It can't be the 1 column x several rows, because of the merge. And that's why despite the indication of the range, the resulting selection must be (IMHO) the set of all cell _incident_ upon the indicated range. By the way - our current behavior is actually _not_ what you describe. Because if one Shifts-down beyond the merged cells, the selection contracts again to only one column wide, and actually skips the merged cells. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
