Problem description: When I selected some cells in one of sheets and then switch or create another sheet, the selected area disappear. Steps to reproduce: 1. Selected the cells from A1 to B2; 2. Click the "+" button to create another sheet; 3. Switch to the first sheet which the selected cells in. Current behavior: The selected area from (A1:B2) to A1. Expected behavior: The selected area is (A1:B2) Operating System: Windows 7 Version: 4.0.1.2 release
Confirmed, enhancement. Win 7 64-bit Version: 4.4.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 8b21b5cbe78945b27525b4ce78ae3d981f90590f TinderBox: Win-x86@39, Branch:master, Time: 2014-11-06_03:55:51
This behavior (losing cell selection) also occurs when switching to print preview and back to the current sheet.
Inherited from OOo, see https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=93938 Set "Hardware" to "All". By the way, a selected/marked range also disappears in Writer when going to Print Preview and back! Should this behavior in Writer be another bug or can we set "Component" from "Calc" to "LibreOffice" or "UI"? I think all components of LibreOffice use a common code that causes this bug. Confirmed in Version: 5.3.0.3 Build ID: 7074905676c47b82bbcfbea1aeefc84afe1c50e1 CPU Threads: 8; OS Version: Windows 6.2; UI Render: default; Layout Engine: new; Calc: CL

I asked a Calc dev and you should create a new report for the Writer issue.

Changing from enhancement to bug because this is not an intended use for selecting cells.
