Arch Linux
libreoffice-fresh is the feature branch, with new program enhancements for early adopters or power users.

Selection means you need to have some object selected and it will then select that slide.

Request for improving Help is bug 144102.

However, there is also bug 40163 which requests to only export/print the selected object and not the rest of the page.
