            Bug ID: 105339
           Summary: Disable table column selection in the border margin
                    and extend the area for selecting table row
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
Probably a matter of personal taste but I find the way of selecting table
content a counter intuitive.
1. When clicking and hold the left mouse button while dragging down at the
total left side of the paper border I'm selecting only the left table column
(column A).
2. When clicking in a quite quite small area nearby the table border selecting
the "Select table row"
3. When clicking and hold the left mouse button at the first cell A1 downwards,
I'm selecting individual cell in column A again.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open attached file
2.Click in the left margin with the left mouse and hold it
3.Drag downwards

Actual Results:  
Only the left column gets selected

Expected Results:
Personally I wouldn't expect left or right table column selecting capability's 
in the border margins. Only a full selecting in the left side. Now it's counter
intuitive in multiple way's:
1. Distance between actual column and the place clicked for selection
2. An bit awkward structuring (total left column selection, more nearby to
column table row selection, and inside the cell selection)
3. Columns the middle can't be selected in the same way


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No
