Description sasha.libreoffice 2011-02-17 07:23:27 UTC
When working with tables in writer often I need select some not adjacent cells. But can not. For example, in table:
X O O
O X O
O O X
I need select all three cells with "X".

I propose add ability selecting not adjacent cells in table in Writer
Comment 1 Muriel de Souza Godoi 2011-10-09 12:39:33 UTC
The same here.
Functionality still not available on 3.4.2.

Should be nice select non adjacent cells using ctrl key.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1

Comment 3 sasha.libreoffice 2012-01-02 02:27:35 UTC
remains in LibO 3.5.0 beta 1
Comment 4 michinine 2012-02-20 11:51:38 UTC
Usually, this comes up when someone wants to alternate the background on (invisible on print) tables like this:

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
...........................
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
...........................
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX


Without the ability to select non adjacent cells/rows/columns
this becomes tedious.

still reproducible with LO 4.3.0.4 (Win 8.1)
