[libreoffice-users] [3.4.4/Windows] How to move cell with mouse?
Hello, I want to move cell A1 to A2 with the mouse: I select A1, then press Alt, and move the cell with the mouse: Nothing happens I select A1, then press Ctrl, and move the cell with the mouse: A2 is also selected and nothing happens Also tried Shift, Ctrl+Shift, Alt+Ctrl, etc.: Doesn't work How can I drag and drop a cell with the mouse? As a temporary solution, I just Cut (Ctrl+X) and Paste (Ctrl+V). I read this, but I can't figure it out. http://help.libreoffice.org/Calc/Moving_Cells_by_Drag-and-Drop Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/3-4-4-Windows-How-to-move-cell-with-mouse-tp3650473p3650473.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

The trick is to actually *select* the cell. Try this: To move A1:A2 to B3:B4, simply select A1:A2 and click-and-drag A1:A2 to B3:B4. To move A1 to A2 (which was your original question), click on A1 (don't release the mouse button yet). Then drag the mouse down (or to the side) to select more than one cell (still don't release the mouse button). Then drag the mouse back to A1 (while still holding the mouse button). When the mouse is over A1, you can release the mouse button again. Now A1 is actually *selected*. You can now drag A1 to A2 (or wherever you wanted it). In the examples above, you could also use the keyboard to select the cell. To do this, hold down shift, press down, press up and release shift. Now you can drag the cell to wherever you want.

Two or more cells can be moved by clicking on the first cell and then selecting the rest to the cells. Then this group of cells can be moved in the various ways that Help describes. If there is an empty cell adjacent to the cell you want to move, then you can move these two cells together. But that obviously has some draw backs. --Dan -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Click and hold to drag highlighted cell to new destination I think this method is better than the one I described. Thanks for pointing it out. Just make sure not to skip step 1.

Click and hold to drag highlighted cell to new destination For the sake of completeness, let me add that you could also use the Shift key instead of the Ctrl key. So then it would look like this: 1. Click on the cell you want to move 2. Shift+click on the same cell (hold shift, click on the cell, release shift) 3. Click and drag the cell to where you want it -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
