Bug ID: 167868
Summary: It is too difficult to change the order of columns (or
rows)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needsUXEval
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
A user wants to take one row of a worksheet and move it up above several other
rows (or down below several other rows), without overwriting nor replicating
any rows.
* Cutting and Pasting doesn't do this.
* Cutting and Pasting-special doesn't do this.
* No context-menu command, when the row is selected, does this.
* I don't see any toolbar button which does this.
* I don't see any menu item for does this.
* Click-dragging a selected column doesn't do this.
* Shift-dragging a selected column doesn't do this.
* Ctrl+Shift-dragging a selected column doesn't do this.
* Alt-dragging or Alt-Shift a selected column - on Linux at least - moves the
window, i.e. the window manager captures that.
* Alt+Ctrl-dragging a selected column does something similar - adding a copy at
the target position. Although - eveni that has poor graphical indication, as we
don't see a thick line between existing rows as a placeholder for the new row;
instead, we see a list of rows to cover.
Even if, somehow, on Windows, Alt-dragging did work - this is not intuitive
enough, not discoverable enough, by users. We need to make this action easier
to notice and easier to take.
... the situation is mostly similar for columns.
