Created attachment 152755 [details] Don't roll Tested in Linux Mint 19.1; LibreOffice x.x.x - 6.3.x Modul: Writer This is a very old problem. -- Open new document -- Table - Insert Table - Rows: 40 (or more) - click Insert -- Now, try to select with the mouse the rows: --- Move the mouse pointer the table left side ( the icon changes: -> ) --- Move down the mouse pointer When you reach the bottom of the screen, the screen doesn't roll.
I confirm it with Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: 2f2f4767089512c34514896bc37823f9310e9dd4 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: GL; VCL: win; TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2019-07-10_02:13:57 Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded Related to bug 4797 (can we treat this as a duplicate?)
Still present in Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha1+ (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 4a9eef7849a75ba91806886ea9c96d114c8d56f9 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19043; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI: en-GB Calc: CL Additional informations: Bug is not related to mouse. It is also impossible to select with touchpad => I change bug summary If you place cursor in a tble cell, you can select as expected.
Still reproducible in: Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha1+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: c50cf1883af26daebdfc9d796ced3c20c222f43b CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded Already in: Version: 6.1.6.3 Build ID: 5896ab1714085361c45cf540f76f60673dd96a72 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk2; Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); Calc: group threaded The behaviour is different with columns: selecting off the viewport to the right ends up selecting only the first column.
Still present in 7.5.3.2 If i scroll with my mouse wheel, while holding the right button, it will expose more rows until the top most selected row tries to scroll beyond the visible window space. Then it negates the scroll attempt. If i select the first row with the mouse (black arrow on the left), then hold the Shift key and DownArrow, i can select additional lines successfully all the way to the bottom of the table. I tried using the down arrow while right click selecting and it did not work.

No need to have many rows. As long as part of the table is not in view (e.g. when zoomed in), dragging the cursor over the bottom toolbar / status bar will cause the top of the selection to be deselected (instead of the view auto-scolling down). It does not happen when going from bottom to top: the view scrolls as expected, without losing rows in the selection. Several workarounds: - zoom out to view everything before selecting - select one row, then Shift + click last row - select cells instead of whole rows - select one row, then add to selection with Shift + Down. Reproduced in recent trunk build: Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: bdf3b5ce49b0e4ee1b4525d344cfb037ef473059 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
