Description André Desgualdo Pereira 2014-05-05 13:06:22 UTC 
Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Writer, create a table and put some content into it. 
2. Put the cursor into some cell and press Ctrl+A

Current behavior:
All text in the document is selected. 

Expected behavior:
"Ctrl+A If the active cell is empty, Ctrl+A selects the whole table; otherwise, it selects the contents of the active cell. Press Ctrl+A a second time to select the entire table."

              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.2.3.3 release
Comment 1 André Desgualdo Pereira 2014-05-05 13:09:58 UTC 
I just realize that it happens in documents created with previous versions of Libreoffice but not in documents created with Libreoffice-4.
Comment 2 André Desgualdo Pereira 2014-05-05 13:16:25 UTC 
Forget the previous comment. 
The bug happens when a document has a table right at the top.

I confirm the bug.
It happens only when the table is the first thing in the document.
Comment 6 Norbert X 2014-07-22 10:57:46 UTC 
I confirm this bug on LibO Version: 4.2.5.2
Build ID: 420m0(Build:2) in Ubuntu Precise (from PPA).

For me Ctrl+A for selecting only cell is a great advantage of LibO over MSO Word.

For me this bug is reproducible if document has only table.
If I add some text before table this bug is not reproducible.
