Comment 1 Jorge Meza 2011-12-15 14:12:53 UTC
I reproduced this bug with LibreOffice 3.4 running on win 7 32 bits and in fact, I couldn't select the whole elements in the table. So I can say it is a reproducible bug.
Comment 2 A (Andy) 2013-04-27 13:12:13 UTC
I can select all the cells, but only if I start selecting from the bottom left (with LO 4.0.2.2 [Win7 Home, 64bit])

The question is now, whether we should now close this issue or whether this is still a bug?

True, but this's still a valid bug.

Hi *
Can you pls check this for you again?

IN 4.1.0.4, I insert a table, merge two cells, in random cell Ctrl-A > whole table is selected ...

Looks fixed.
Comment 5 dE 2013-07-29 14:45:48 UTC
When the mouse is on the left top most corner of the table, the cursor changes to an arrow pointing to the lower right. When you click, you can select the whole table, but dragging from top most left to right most bottom will give you the same problem.
Comment 6 dE 2013-07-29 14:46:29 UTC
On LO 4.0.4.2

(4.1 requires surprisingly new version of boost to compile)
Comment 7 Cor Nouws 2013-07-29 15:03:13 UTC
(In reply to comment #5)

Work both fine for me. Both in 4.0.4.2 and 4.1.0.4 in a *random example*.
But in your example, indeed, draging with the mouse does not work.

(I did it with Ctrl+A in the table, by the way. And that works too.)

I change the summary, to make the bug more clear right away.

thanks for your further explanation!
