Description die-mail 2018-04-11 18:23:14 UTC
German:
Bei den Tabellen in  Writer fehlt zum effektiven Arbeiten noch eine einzige Funktion, die schon in AmiPro/WordPro möglich war:

"Tabellenzeilen/-spalten mit einer Tastenkombination verschieben."

Bei einfachen wie auch bei umfangreichen Tabellen müssen die Inhalte oft anders sortiert werden, was durch das Verschieben einzelner Zeilen/Spalten mit einer Tastenkombination einfach möglich wäre.

Leider sind die Tastenkombinationen <Alt>+Pfeiltasten schon anderweitig vergeben aber vielleicht findet sich ja eine andere Lösung?


English:
The tables in Writer still lack a single function that was already possible in AmiPro/WordPro for effective work:

"Move table rows/columns with a key combination."

For both simple and large tables, the contents often have to be sorted differently, which would simply be possible by moving individual rows/columns with a key combination.

Unfortunately the key combinations <Alt>+arrow keys are already assigned elsewhere but maybe you can find another solution?

Set as enhancement.

I did not find such shortcuts too. That said, before implementing that, it must be decided how it would work if there is vertically merged cells in the row to be moved or in the row up or bellow the row to be moved.

Anyway, it's a valid enhancement request, so status set to NEW.

Best regards. JBF

Well, first we would need a function (UNO command) to move columns left/right and rows up/down.

So it is more than just assing a shortcut to a command => I changed the bug summary

Regina, do you know if it is possible to implement such a command?

Let's do it. Task is to add UNO commands to move one (or more if a selection is done) column(s)/row(s) left/right or up down respectively. Could be a GSoC project.

Could be a duplicate of bug 99457.

But 99457 is for Calc, and Keyboard and mouse behavior in Writer and Calc tables is different...
