The whole sheet was selected, and the prior selected object is still active.

When I select a single picture attached to a sheet from picture file, and then select the whole sheet by clicking the top left header, then do a copy or cut operation, the whole sheet should be copied/cut, but in fact not. Only the prior selected picture was copied/cut, not the whole sheet. When I paste the copied object(s) into another sheet, only prior selected picture was pasted.

Hi,

your attachment is unreadable :(

I can recreate this under Fedora 21 LO4.3.2.2 also XP LO4.2.04

Just to ensure we are on the same page:

create a new speadsheet
1. in cell L24 Insert->Image->from file
2. in other random cells insert text
3. click on L24
4. click on top left header - the whole document is highlighted
5. click CTRL-X
6. cell L24 is cut but the rest of the document is untouched

Is the function of the top left header to SELECT ALL or highlight all?

Comment 4 Xavier Van Wijmeersch 2017-07-09 13:36:28 UTC 
confirmed for the steps in comment1

but when not select the image in step3, the text and the image is copying and can be past as a whole in another sheet (only steps 1.2,4,5,6)

I downloaded, installed and tested LibreOffice (current latest version, 6.0.5 x86-64) today to see if this bug I reported on 2014-10-05 (with version 4.1.3.2 x86-64) is currently fixed or not. I found this bug is still present.

Explanation:- After I selected a single graphic object, I tried select the whole sheet A) by clicking the top left header, then do cut/copy (tried both cut and copy, cutting resulted in only the prior selected graphic object was cut out), pasting the copied into another sheet, only prior selected graphic object was pasted. B) using main menu (Edit > Select All) and C) using shortcut key sequence (in this case Ctrl-Shift-Space), at this step, only all graphic objects in sheet were selected altogether, every things else were not; then do cut/copy (tried both cut and copy, cutting resulted in all the graphic objects in sheet were cut out, but every things else remain), pasting the copied into another sheet, only all graphic objects from selection were copied, each in exact positions.

Just to clarify: Reproduced above except for following changes:
- Step 3: click on image inserted from Step 1 (not the cell)
- Step 6: Image is cut (not the cell) and the rest of document untouched

It seems that if the image is selected initially, before the whole document is highlighted in step 4, only the image will be cut/pasted. 

In addition, this looks to be reproducible in v.3.3, so updating earliest bug to Inherited from OOo. 

Also reproducible in daily master build:
