Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 13587
Whole line selection
Last modified: 2008-05-17 23:33:29 UTC
In MS Word when you move the cursor to the left side of the line/cell it flips and allows you to select the whole line/cell. This is a very useful feauture, would be nice if writer had it too.
SBA: Reassigned to Bettina from the User Experience team for consideration.
Please try using the latest OOo 1.1 Rc5, Your version already old enough, and many bug fixes since your version and 1.1 RC5. If the problem still happend in 1.1 RC5 please report back I think now we can select many line. Please explain more about your problem, your information is not enough to investigate the problem. Please explain step by step. Thanks
Resolving as WORKSFORME since this works in 1.9.79. With four single clicks on the left side of the line, you can select the entire line.
This is a duplicate of issue 10598: http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/ show_bug.cgi?id=10598 BTW: The "four click workaround" (I refuse to call this a solution) does not work in OO.o 2.1.
