Bug ID: 149254
Summary: Make the selection behavior when double-clicking a
word a user preference.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I would like to see the behavor when double-clicking a word be user-modifiable
preference. Most WYSIWIG editors I use, including the one I'm using to create
this report, select a group of consecutive letters plus trailing whitespace up
to the punctuation or the next letter. Writer selects only the word. This is
not necessarily /wrong/ behavior, however it is contrary to what my muscle
memory expects. The behavior is especially bothersome when editing a document
as I tend to write a lot and then delete words either as a group, or one at a
time. To delete a word I have to hit the delete key twice, once for the word,
once for the space.
This is an admittedly minor point, but it can be irritating when I really want
to focus on what I'm doing rather than the technology.
Thanks!
Chris
