Ah wait, this isn't a duplicate of that one.. you mean when the cursor is moved the highlighting goes away. Has always been the case. Quite sure we also already have that one somewhere, but reopening for the time being.

Just to clarify steps per notes in Comment 2: 

1. Open Calc
2. Create a SUM formula in cell B1 (e.g. =SUM(A1:A11))
3. Enter
4. Click Formula bar
5. Use left/right arrow keys to move cursor
6. Note changes in cell range highlight

Expected: cell range should remain highlighted when cursor is moved

Actual: highlighting around cell range disappears when cursor is moved

Actually, if we're talking of the highlighting going away after moving the cursor, it seems there's already another bug that already clearly describes the issue. I'll go ahead and close this as a duplicate.
