Description Claude 2022-08-15 02:19:34 UTC
When the UI variants Tabbed, Tabbed Compact and Groupedbar Compact are enabled, in Calc, the selection of a group of cells using the keyboard (SHIFT + ARROW KEYS) does not work when moving to the left or up.  It only works when moving to the right or down.  The behavior is normal on all other UI variants.

To reproduce:
1.  Set one of the troubled UI´s: Tabbed, Tabbed Compact or Groupedbar Compact.
2.  Shutdown LibreOffice
3.  Restart LibreoFFice, open a Spreadsheet (new file)
4.  locate any cell as the active one.
5.  Select cells SHIFT + LEFT ARROW  or SHIFT + UP ARROW.

Observed: nothing happens.  No selection region is displayed.

Expected: a two cell selected region should be displayed.

(LO version: 7.4.0.3)  Windows 11 (on at least three different computers)

Hi Claude, take a look at bug reports 150051 and 150336, are they similar to yours?

At first I thought it was related to extensions trying to add new shortcuts, but in 150051 the user said that no extensions were added.

Hello Rafael.... thank you for bringing my attention to those reports, it is not easy to verify if a bug has already been reported as the summaries are very different..
Yes it is exactly the same... so this might be a duplicate.
Nevertheless I point the attention to a UI problem since in some of them it owrks fine.  Erasing the user profile surely "solves" the problem because the UI is reverted to the Standard Toolbar and it works OK with that UI.  I think it is a legit bug which have to be addressed by the UI developpers...

Hi Claude. I'll mark this one as Duplicate of bug 150336 so we can continue the discussion only there.
