Re: [orca-list] Selecting Cells or Rows in Calc

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,

Selecting cells in the direction of movement is working fine for me when 
holding down shift key and pressing respective arrow keys.
Unfortunatelly orca no longer announces cells or rows being selected 
this way.
I must say it works for a while this way and I was not paing enough 
attention. I am either using ctrl+shift+ other keys to select whole 
ranges or I am counting keypresses when selecting small number of cells.
I am afraid this is a libreoffice issue.

Greetings

Peter
