After clicking on a cell, keeping the mouse button pressed doesn't change anything. It is how it works. If you want to insert, e.g., a reference to B4 en A1. Go to A1 Press = or + or - Click on B4

(In reply to Bruno from comment #2) > I want to select the specific cell for moving or coping it to another place You click once (without releasing) and hold your mouse button. Now move slightly your mouse so the mouse pointer selects also an adjacent cell. Then move the mouse back to the original cell, so only that cell is marked/highlighted. Only now release the mouse button. The cell is now selected. You can now click the mouse again on the same cell (without releasing) and hold your mouse button. Move the mouse in order to drag the cell to the location you want. Once the cell is positioned in its new location, release the mouse button. Please confirm that this is the action you are trying to achieve and that it works by following these steps. Alternatively, please clarify what exactly is that you are trying to achieve and that is not working as expected. Up to this point, I cannot understand this bug report (if there is one at all).
