Description Michael French 2021-10-01 14:55:19 UTC
Description:
When I selected a column in a table, the whole table becomes highlighted.  Consequently, it is not possible to delete a single column.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a muli-column table
2. Select one column.
3. The whole table is selected instead of just one column.

Actual Results:
Whole table is selected instead of just one column.

Expected Results:
Just one column is selected.


Reproducible: Always

Single column select in LO 3.5, no select in LO 3.6, table select In LO 4.0. 
Regression, fix seems wrong.

Still reproduced.

Maybe for some testers it might not be clear how to do step 2: hover the mouse over the top of a column until it changes to a downward-pointing arrow and left-click to select a column.
