Thanks Sahil for this contribution! This is looking great!

I've just tested it and it is working as requested.

Do you plan to do anything else about this issue? I would only suggest you add
a Uno command to easily toggle Highlight On/Off. Then this could be added to
the menu and toolbars/notebookbars.

This feature would be indeed REALLY helpful!
Apparently there is a way to implement it in MSO Xl using VBA... 
I haven't tried it, but it is described here...
https://www.ablebits.com/office-addins-blog/highlight-active-row-column-excel/ 
...and here https://trumpexcel.com/highlight-active-row-column-excel/
Perhaps it could give new ideas of how to implement it in LO Calc.

@Massimiliano:

If you found a developer who is able to implement this and costs would be too
high: Post it back here and maybe we can setup some kind of crowdfunding. I'm
sure there are several people here that would donate something to get this
feature.

--- Comment #63 from Wolfgang Jäger  ---
When the bug (feature request) was exatly 10.5 years old a first useful comment
stated the relevant fact concerning overlays and now we get more detail about
this.

The requested feature is concerning a very plausible wish of quite a lot of
users, and a good way to offer another advantage of Calc compared to commercial
competitors, without compromising the existing compatibility. 
However, it seems to me that the implementation does not amount to an "easy
hack". Conflicts with conditional formatting must be carefully avoided. Well, I
don't really understand any of this...

Who might assign him(f/m)self to this?

Se Comment #45 in this bug ticket.

I would start here:
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/inc/gridwin.hxx
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/view/gridwin.cxx
https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/view/gridwin4.cxx

To implement this, one will have to add a new sdr::overlay::OverlayObjectList
to handle this new highlight overlay.

First of all,
Happy 12th birthday, bugno 33201!

This feature would be highly desireable, indeed -
since MSO doesn't have this, too, it would be a significant advantage if this
would be done.

Is there anybody here who can point me in the right direction were to look for
the right place to do this in the sources?


@Joe Abraham:
IMHO we should wait until this feature has been developed before we ask for
further enhancements ...

One addition which shouldn't be much more work:  allow us to highlight every
9th row/column, starting at row/column x.  That way we might assign multiple
colors: every 8th row/column starting at 2 might be yellow, every 8th
row/colunm starting at 4 might be pink, etc.

Might I suggest a kludge?

How about an option that will allow us to highlight every nth row (give us the
option, we put in a number); and then we select a color.

On the same panel, we can have the same options for columns, a) every nth
column, in b) a selected color.

@Yahueni, I do not understand what you mean by "desired row/column".

Here: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ly5sO.png you can see what I have using the
"hack" I explained in my comment #51. Without the airline cursor lines, it is
very difficult to find at a glance which row/column the cursor is in. The
problem with my hack is that it's gnome-specific, it's slow, and follows the
mouse, not the active cell.

Can suggest a half-measure - highlight the mouse cursor when hovering over the
desired row/column. Maybe it's easier to implement?

In the meanwhile, I discovered that (at least on Gnome Shell) I can use the
"Universal access" hairline zoom feature, which helps a lot.

There is an explanation here: https://askubuntu.com/a/1095983/16395 --- if you
choose a very transparent color for the airline cursor and a default zoom
factor of 1.00, you can then use the keyboard (by default super+alt+8, but you
can change it) to superpose to the mouse cursor a full-screen crossline. 

Clearly not the same thing, because it follows the mouse and not the active
cell, but it's better than nothing on very big sheets.

Too difficult for me. ScTabView::MarkColumns() and *Rows() take a lot of
conditions into account such as merged cells (not perfectly correct though),
other selection, and many more situations that are not clear to me.

I also wonder if adding a selection is the right way. We could do it on-the-fly
in ScGridWindow::UpdateSelectionOverlay(), and perhaps only if nothing else is
selected. The range would be from 0 to max_view (GetScrSize()?) with
GetCurX/Y() by cell width (no idea how to calculate the width/height in px) and
has to respond to ScGridWindow::CursorChanged() but also resize and scroll.

Bayram, is this something for you?

I just played with colors:
- Color only on the Border (as someone suggested) → In my opinion too subtle to
be really helpful in crowded tables.
- Blue highlight → I tried it with less opaque versions of the "selection blue"
and indeed that doesn't work, as the “selection blue” is already quite light,
and you can't really go much lighter. Darker is also bad because you lose
contrast to the content then. So Eike is right, it has to be another color then
the "selection blue".

Marked selection is already blue, so that should be something different.

No, because Alt+Space opens the window menu in at least GNOME and other window
managers.

Anything ScOutputData would be wrong because it's not related to data at all,
nor styles. It also wouldn't be a background.

Take a look at ScTabView::MarkRows() and ScTabView::MarkColumns(), which are
called for .uno:SelectRow and .uno:SelectColumn, it would be almost the same
(without the actual mark and selection of course) and should be a
HighlightOverlay added to the OverlayManager, similar to the SelectionOverlay
that is updated from InitBlockMode() as ScGridWindow::UpdateSelectionOverlay(),
e.g. like UpdateHighlightOverlay() and so on. They could share a great portion
of code.

Was looking into the code but it seems to be a tricky thing. We could use
either ScOutputData::DrawBackground() or ScOutputData::DrawGrid() for the
highlighting (would suggest to add a boolean parameter to the function because
it's also used for print and other previews), which is called from
ScGridWindow::DrawContent() (gridwin4.cxx). But no idea what cells is focused
at this position.

It could be a highlight (transparent shade of color) or even a border (similar
to selection highlight in another color, maybe, or just a colored border making
a "cross" row-column).

I use to have to explore big student data spreadsheets (thousands of rows and
around one hundred columns) and this would be a life safer --- now I sometimes
have to select a column and use an on-screen horizontal ruler to be sure to
pick the right spot.

Heiko's suggestions seem spot on!

Sounds like a good enhancement. We should make it optional in both on/off and
color. Tools > Options > Calc > View: "[x] Highlight col/row " (default
color ideally taken from the system theme). And it requires an entry under the
View main menu and a good shortcut. Perhaps alt+space since ctrl/shift+space
select the col/row. A selection overwrites the highlighting, of course.

All. This feature request is more then ten years old now. It is funny that we
are still in the same shame.

+1, this should be an extremely helpful feature.

CTRL+SPACE and Shift+Space does not work for me on 

Version: 7.1.4.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 10(Build:2)
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: hu-HU (hu_HU.UTF-8); UI: hu-HU
Ubuntu package version: 1:7.1.4~rc2-0ubuntu0.20.04.1~lo1
Calc: threaded

Ctrl+space OR shift+space alone itself are working, but cannot highlight the
current cell as a +, due to the complete sheet gets highlighted upon pressing
the second set of keyboard shortcuts.

Thanks for the hint on Shift + Space. That makes the situation already a bit
better ;)

I wish that would be so... Don't worry, Linux users are not disadvantaged here,
there is currently no highlight, on any OS.

I also need this feature for work with long and wide spreadsheets.

It seems such feature is present in Windows version? Or is it only system
feature there? I am a Linux user (KDE), have only seen it by other people.

Maybe there's an easy way to implement this in v7!

I saw in the LO 7 release notes[1] that there's now support for transparent
text in Writer and other components.

Can that code be reused to apply a transparent rectangle over the current row
and column, as illustrated at
https://superuser.com/questions/899479/how-to-highlight-whole-row-and-column-under-cursor-in-openoffice-calc?

Hello there...

Seems like no user of OOo 1 has read this bug so far, because that feature was
already in OOo (or was it Star Calc?) before. And yes, it was EXTREMELY
helpfull!! I think it vanished when Windows XP arrived, because there was a
problem with the new Theme back then. But that is ages ago ;)

Count me in to the people that want that feature (back) in LibO. It really is
so hard to copy lines to paper by hand, if there is no visual highlight of the
current line/row... I started to select the line that I'm working on right now,
but thats more of a workaround, not a permanent solution...

--- Comment #31 from lore  ---
Instead of changing the behaviour of the software can this perhaps be
implemented with a sort of modifier keys? 

The user selects the cell and the behaviour is unchanged but if the user uses
key+click to select the cell that highlights the row and the column. 

Would this be easier to implement?

Sorry for not being able to bring a bigger contribution to this.

--- Comment #30 from psh...@melbpc.org.au ---
I can understand this might be difficult to implement. A compromise could be a
function to momentarily select the row and/or column of the current cell.

It could be a shortcut you press to highlight the row and/or column for one
second, or it could highlight the row/column for an instant each time you press
the left/up or right/down arrow.

--- Comment #23 from busin...@tokenterprises.com ---
I am not a programmer, but this lack of a feature has always baffled me for its
seemingly simple solution, and the lack of it has made working from a
spreadsheet much more tedious (when calling hundreds of phone numbers from a
contact list, for example.) I've never understood why this is such a difficult
task, considering so many other programs, like gnucash, are able to highlight
(or put a temporary border) around the row and/or column last clicked on. 

It sees to me, and this is for anyone who does have the notion for programming
it in, that it should be as simple as duplicating the routines in the select
row/column action that cause the selected row/column to highlight. It is
obvious this routine analyzes the position of the cell, figures out which
column and row it is in, determines which cell in that row is the first one in
the sheet that is actively being displayed on the screen, and then paints a
background color in that originating cell, and continues +1 until all actively
displayed cells in the row/column are painted. 

Couldn't a duplicate of this routine be created for a highlighting function
(turned on and off in a menu item?) The only difference would be using a
different color. This routine also wouldn't select the first cell in the
column/row you select, as you would be selecting a cell first, and calling the
routine to highlight second.

Oh, how I really hope time travel would be real.  Because I am pretty sure that
given 30 years, LO or OO or whatever succeeds them will have this function
implemented natively without the use of macro.  Or maybe Microsoft Office would
be totally free and there's no need to use OO or LO.  So I just need to go to
2048 and grap a copy of the software!

I completely agree, the VBA macro for excel is something like 25 lines of code,
pretty sparse code In fact it just dynamically sets the background color
property of all cells in active row/column. Is it really so difficult to
implement something similar in LibreOffice that it takes several years?

It seems a quite popular request even in Excel, where there is a (commercial)

Just saying --- I'd love to have the skill for implementing it, so I will not
whine ;-).

No - we don't give ETAs or guarantees. A volunteer with some pretty serious

the experienced developers...it's no trivial task. It might never be
implemented, really just depends on if a volunteer wants to do it.

Just want to state that I personally think it would be a useful feature, if
possible even with some sort of options menu where you can chose the kind of
highlighting and whether to select the complete row column (like a cross +) or
only the two sides related to the row column (L-form).
I am aware, depending on the implied work, this might be more or less
prioritized, but it's one of those things that might make a positive impression
on potential new users, encouraging LO usage.

It is obvious no author of excel/calc really uses it for serious work with big
tables, otherwise this feature would already be there. Sorry for OT, but it is
like debating if we need graphical representation for cursor. In the end, You
can just start writing and see where it is, or You can just click with mouse to
ensure its location, so where is the problem?
