Bug ID: 154995
Summary: Selecting the entire table should not move the cursor
to the last position
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In Writer, when you have a table and you want to select the entire table using
the arrow in the top left corner (when you place the mouse right outside the
table in the top-left corner), the cursor moves to the last cell in the table,
at the bottom-right end.
The expected behavior is that the cursor will remain in the first cell (in the
top-left corner).
Reasons for this change:
1) The current behavior is bad for tables that are longer than the current
view... so when you select the entire table, the view moves to the end of the
table, which is very disruptive.
2) Moreover, the current implementation is not consistent with the behavior we
have when you select an entire row or column. In these cases, the cursor stays
in the first row or column (which is the expected behavior). Therefore, when
you select the entire table, the cursor should be positioned in the first table
cell.
