Hi :)
There's a tiny "gotcha" in there that i only noticed because i have done
the same thing myself. It's the . in
sudo apt-get remove libreoffice*.*
Try again but this time without the extra * and the . before it;
sudo apt-get remove libreoffice*
Not all *nix files have a file-ending and dot

I emphasise that there is no implied or intendedcriticism of Andreas in
my previous post.
The problem is that Tom is a very social person, and invaluable in not
frightening away insecure novices, but perhaps not the best poster when
the going gets technical.

Btw to anyone who thinks i might be accusing anyone of being an aspie ...
It is not possible to "accuse" someone of being an aspie in much the same

Many of the aspie traits have an extremely positive and beneficial side.

I've just tried this with a new empty sheet in LO 4.3.2.2 and haven't noticed

Hi Gary - but my problem description specifically said ROWS.
Interestingly - I hadn't thought to try columns, since the spreadsheet
I'm working in I'm only doing the rows, but I can confirm that my
problem is ONLY present for ROWS.

The same applies to selecting rows or columns. No delay.
No need to shout. You are being unnecessarily rude.

Using 4.4.2.2 under Linux Mint 17 the right-click menu appeared immediately

It also takes longer for the selected dis-contiguous rows to get
highlighted the more you add. Again, not so for columns.

Sorry - I must have had a blind spot. Just tried with rows, and yes, it does
indeed seem to take increasing time as the number of discontiguous rows
increases.

Should have mentioned that I originally tested on 4.3.6 which exhibited
the problem as described by Tanstaafl.
I've subsequently tried it on 4.4.2 and the problem appears fixed.

IME, PDFs open in Draw, not Writer. What you're seeing in Writer is the
mark up.

The default PDF import filter opens PDF into Draw, but the filter can also
parse into Writer and is manipulated in GUI from the LibreOffice Open/Save
dialogs.
YMMV to do your processing, but see if this gets you closer to configuration
needed to parse your PDF for changes.

Good catch! No
