Description: When I have a Writer in two Windows, with two different documents, I can switch between the two windows. In general, when I have a normal text selection (containing only text), the text selection is displayed correctly when switching between the two windows. However, if I have a table in my document and some text after the table, and I select all content with Select All (e.g. CTRL-A), then this selection is removed by switching views. Steps to Reproduce: See the video for actual steps. 1. Have two documents opened in two Writer window. 2. In the first document, do a select all, selecting a table and some text after the table. 3. Switch to the second window and back (move the focus, make the window active). Actual Results: Table + text selection is removed by switching active windows. Expected Results: Table + text selection should be unchanged similar to simple text selection. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: .
