Description: The area to select the inner border is to small (or the dialog) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert a 2x2 table 2. Table -> Properties -> Border tab 3. Select the inner line.. with pointer at the height of the gray square Also seen in GEN.. GTK3 simple bigger border picker.. so less hit or miss Actual Results: Outer border & inner border selected Expected Results: Only inner Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Found in 7.2 and in LibreOffice 3.3.0 OOO330m19 (Build:6) tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4
Cannot follow #3; clicking the inner lines is very easy and I probably miss the point. Can you make a screencast?

All space within the dashed lines in other words between the grey rectangles are clickable. It's the full width of the pointer cursor. Don't see benefit in making it a one or two pixels larger. Any one else?

Taking the inner border as example You select rather often 2 borders at the same time.. So horizontal & vertical. There is only small region where this doesn't happen. The region is the same in GTK3, except the whole border picker tool being larger.. so making it less problematic. I personally dislike the feature clicking in the area where lines cross each other selecting both lines.. At least with this ease.. I rather prefer clicking twice, instead of 'selecting 2 borders' where I wanted to select only 1

The center area is likely the rectangle of both the vertical and the horizontal line's hot zone. Besides, seems to me kinda corner case to enable both inner borders.

It's about the clickable area.. would love the click twice, but LibreOffice doesn't let me :P I'm talking about wanting to disable a single border. Where I constantly click at the wrong place making the selection larger > The center area is likely the rectangle of both the vertical and the > horizontal line's hot zone.

And in the corner of wanting to adjust borders selectively (template doesn't fit).. We have to different approaches.. You're arguing from perspective with all borders disabled. I'm arguing from perspective with all borders enabled, and wanting to disable a specific one.. in principle not that relevant. Except it might explain the 'corner' difference? If would be 'simple' I opt for the template..

You did look at the screencast..
