Description Samuel Thibault 2016-04-13 23:11:49 UTC
Starting from a new empty presentation

- create a second slide
- come back to the first slide
- add some text to the first slide
- press control-home to move to beginning of the text of the first slide
- press control-shift-end to select the whole text of the first slide

What actually happens is that the *whole slide* is moved to the end of the presentation, instead of just selecting the whole text of the first slide.

While I understand that this is a reasonable keyboard shortcut when the keyboard focus is on the slide selector on the left, this is really *not* a reasonable keyboard shortcut when in edit mode inside the text of the slide: one expects ctrl-shift-end to behave just like it has always done, just like ctrl-shift-right and similar, i.e. select text. Please revert to the previous behavior, i.e. selecting up to the end of the text, when the keyboard focus is inside the first slide.

Really, this is one of the things which makes me consider moving back to LaTeX, while I left LaTeX for presentation a dozen years ago...
