Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 98092
CTRL-A does not work as select all

OOo 3.0.1 RC1 and RC2. Start Impress and open a new empty presentation. As a Layout choose "Title, Text". Now begin to write a random word per line, as example write 'one' in the first line, 'two' in the second and so on, then try to press CTRL-A to select all the text just entered. CTRL-A now opens the "Open File" dialog box instead of selecting the text. The regression is only in Linux, I've tested it in Ubuntu 8.10 and Fedora 9/10 while in windows Vista/XP it correctly works.
Is this OOO300_m15 you are using? Did you update an older version? Thanks.
Yes, I've tested it with OOO300_m15 either with a fresh installation or an update. Also with 000300_m14 the behaviour was the same.
RESULT OF TEST: Bug NOT present for UBUNTU 9.04 configuration provided below. All the text in the particular area(like "CLICK to add title" area) is selected. The behavior described for the failed systems doesn't occur for the configuration provided below. Configuration : Platform: PC Operating System: Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-14-generic Open Office Impress version: OpenOffice.org 3.0.1 OOO300m15(Build:9379) Steps Taken : 1. Open Impress with an empty presentation. 2. In the "Layouts" window on the right of the screen select the Layout on which when one slides the cursor and rests for a second the following text appears "Title, Text". 3. Start typing in "Click to add Title section" or the "click to add an outline area" and after typing some words or a word go to the next line by pressing the "Enter" key. 4. After typing in three or four lines, press the combination of keys CTRL+A.
Not reproducible on linux with DEV300_m55,too.
Works for me.
Closed.
