An this is tested with?

@Steve - how do you drag the selected columns ?

I'm still stuck with bug 58440.

Simply selecting columns & press and hold left mouse and drag (touchpad)

The only thing I seem to be able to achieve is select one or more columns, left mouse button click on a cell within that selection, but not any of the column headers, and whilst keeping the mouse key pressed down, watch a black dot indicating the cursor move across the screen, which results in an overwrite at the release site rather than an insert column/move existing column.

If I use the Alt key, the data is copy/pasted.

For me, we're still in bug 58440 territory.

Ah, I don't have a touchpad with my macMini.

Testing on my MBPro has the same problem, the touchpad only serves to bring up the context menu for the selected columns.

Never experienced that; Or I might changed they default mouse behavior (to match Windows)

(slight modification: If dragging a range you see a small square only instead of borders on the whole range)

No border to identify target range

The animated GIF  shows that there is no border to identify the target range. There is only a small black square near the mouse pointer. Since the square defines the target cell position of the cell, where the mouse pointer has been when you started to drag, it is hard to determine the target ranges position.

Bisected

I think the border when moving the column is important but I believe there should be an outline around the selected portion also.  Even in the versions that showed the border when moving, you had to guess where to click to drag.

Here is the bisect info.

Thanks for the bibisect. Let's mark it "bibisected" only as the result is a range of commits rather than one single commit.

Sounds good.

I had to go back to the version "release_lo-3.3.0_to_lo-5.4.3.2 " and I suspect that is why we got the long list of commits.

I'm happy to retest when it gets addressed.
