            Bug ID: 159019
           Summary: EDITING: problem when scrolling in a table in order to
                    select rows outside of the current view
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: Inherited From OOo
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
In Writer, if you have a long table with a lot of rows, they may exceed the
current view of your window (unless you’re zooming out a lot). Then, trying to
select several rows with your mouse, line by line, until you reach and exceed
the end of the current view will cause an unexpected behaviour: the starting
row is excluded from the selection.

This bug is shared with OpenOffice and still relevant in LibreOffice 7.X
branch.

Easy workaround: using the keyboard (Shift + Bottom arrow key) instead of the
mouse to select the rows.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a table in Writer with more rows that the current view can display.
2. Select with the mouse one entire row.
3. Keep left-clicking and drag the cursor to the bottom of the window,
selecting all the rows until it reaches the end of the current view and scrolls
to the next row.

Actual Results:
The starting row is automatically unselected.

Expected Results:
The starting row should still be selected, like the other ones.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
