Comment 3 opensuse.lietuviu.kalba 2016-09-16 03:58:40 UTC 
Currently LibreOffice can mark single cell in proposed way:
1) click any cell; 2) click again same cell while pressing Ctrl in keyrboad.

and this enhancement should fix bug 98176.

Hi,

Looking at this issue, I see you mix cell focus and cell selection.
In your attachment, the first situation has a cell focus.
In the second and third example, there is a selection.
To select a single cell: expand+shrink selection. Or ctrl+click on one cell.
