--- Comment #19 from ady <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #18) > I vote for changing the shift behavior and make it add the second style, > without the function would overwrite the attribute. And the same for > multiple continuous selections. Stop messing with decades of normal usage of spreadsheet tools. The most common action is to add a border set, not to replace the existing ones. There is no logical reason to reverse the usage of shift in this case (not only confusing users of the current method but also adding unneeded complexity to the most common task); it does not matter that the shift key performs differently on some other software that has nothing to do with spreadsheets. The only reason that the shift key is mentioned here is ignorance. Even if you were to reverse the effect of the shift key (which you should _not_), users would need to understand what they are doing, or RTFM. The real request is to reduce the number of clicks in order to apply the same set of borders that was used last, instead of having to open the borders palette each and every time. Do that, and the OP (and other Calc users) will be happy with the outcome. Forget about the changing the usage of the shift key; maintain the current behavior and effect of the shift key. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
