I looked through the writer doc & getting started guide, and OOo help,
and didn't find any reference to mouse use in this manner. I finally
found this in the migration guide:

<quote>  Mouse use

Some differences are:

* No quick selection of paragraphs or lines by clicking to the left of
the paragraph.
* Control+click does not select a sentence, but a triple-click does (a
quadruple-click selects the paragraph).
