            Bug ID: 114108
           Summary: Shift+up arrow then home doesn't select rectangle;
                    only the starting line
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ddascalescu+freedesktop at gmail.com

Description:
Shift+arrows/PgUp/PgDn/Home/End are often used to create range (rectangle)
selections. Once the cursor was moved with Shift+Arrows, as long as Shift is
still pressed, the Home/End/PgUp/PgDn keys should take the current position of
the cursor as the "start" for selecting the end of the range. That works for
PgUp/PgDn, but not Home/End. Excel is consisten.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In a new sheet, move the cursor to C3
2. Press Shift+up arrow twice
3. Keep Shift pressed, and press Home

Actual Results:  
A3:C3 is selected

Expected Results:
A1:C3 should be selected


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
By comparison, move the cursor to A1, and press Shift+right arrow twice, then
PgDn. An area from A1 to Cxx will be correctly selected, not from A1 to Axx
("xx" is a variable number of rows, depending on the window size).
