Bug ID: 154972 Summary: When clicking a Navigator item while in Extended Selection mode - don't revert to Standard Selection Product: LibreOffice Version: 7.6.0.0 alpha0+ Master Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: eyalr...@gmx.com The "Extended Selection" mode allows one to avoid having to keep the mouse pressed and drag all the way to the end of the selection. Instead, the selection extends itself and one simply has to get to the endpoint of the selection. ... except that it's not so simple. If your selection ends in a few paragraphs or a page away, then - fine, not a big deal. But what if your selection is 100 pages away? Or you don't know where it is, but it has a bookmark? In those cases you are likely to want to use the Navigator to get to where the selection ends. Unfortunately, clicking a Navigator entity (e.g. a Bookmark, but not just) - reverts the selection mode to Standard, so that when you arrive - nothing is selected. This is not a good idea. Let the use decide when they want to quit Extended Selection mode, unless it's very obvious that they do. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
