--- Comment #7 from Mike Kaganski <mikekagan...@hotmail.com> --- (In reply to ady from comment #3) > In the "simpler range" case, the "home" cell of the selection has its > row+column highlighted, so the range is easily seen, not to mention it is > all already highlighted by itself and at the row/column headers. Note that the goal of the column/row highlight feature is not *finding* a focused / selected cell: the real goal os to have an easy way to see the *context* - i.e., the other cells in the same row and in the same column, like headers, correspondig record data, and so on. Finding the cell is only a not-really-important aspect here, with borders and cell highlichting and row/column header highlighting already serving "find it" goal. And the "see the related data" is a good reason to implement Roman's proposal; with a limitation of only simple case - at least initially. Multi-selection could *possibly* also use it - but that is debatable. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
