Created attachment 127252 [details]
screenshot of wrong highlighted selected cell

OS: Ubuntu Xenial 16.04.1 LTS 

LO Version: 5.1.4.2 10m0(Build:2)

Problem: Selected cell not highlighted correctly after using keyboard arrow keys used.

Expected: Highlighted selected cell supposed to move down, but didn't.

Example:
		1. enter some data into column a
		2. hold down arrow
		3. notice the lag when you let go of key
		(Screenshot of problem attached)

Also, I cannot reproduce this but: sometimes the selected cell does not update at all until you mouse click to another cell.

I guess you have a problem with the GTK VCL plugin, but I am not able to see which one you are using on your too small screencopy.

Please, could you do what follows:
1/ make and attach a larger screencopy so that it shows the vertical scrollbar
2/ check which packages are installed from this list :
    libreoffice-gtk
    libreoffice-gtk2
    libreoffice-gtk3
3/ if you have the libreoffice-gtk3 package installed, try to launch LO in a terminal with the following commands :
> export SAL_VCLPLUGIN="gtk3"
> libreoffice
and see if you still have the same problem.

Set status to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested
informations are provided.

Best regards. JBF

Sorry the correct command is
export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN="gtk3"
