            Bug ID: 112813
           Summary: Toolbar/Sidebar: Selection of combobox content with a
                    single mouse click
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

When clicking in a combobox with a single mouse click or tab key, the content
should be selected/marked instead of the necessity of using a double-click with
the mouse.

I know this is a different behavior than in the content view (words are only
selected/marked after double-clicking on it, paragraphs with tiple-clicking).
But the UX team should discuss to change the default behavior because its more
likely that the user wants to change the whole content of the combobox than to
only add a character to the existing combobox content.

For example, when clicking into the font size combobox in the formatting
toolbar, the displayed number should be marked so that the user only has to
type a new number and enter. Now the user has to click into the combobox, has
to mark or delete the number by hand, must type a new number and has to type
enter.

When clicking a second time, the marking should be changed to only a blinking
cursor in the clicked position in the combobox (as a single click acts today).
