            Bug ID: 116075
           Summary: EDITING: Unwanted dragging of sheets + contents then
                    deleted
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.5.1 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
My OS is Ubuntu 17.10. When I try to navigate between sheets, it grabs and
drags them along. I am not holding down on any button to drag them, but this
happens anyway. Much worse: after it drags a sheet, it often deletes all of its
contents!

Similarly, if I copy a selection of cells, and then paste them elsewhere, it
won't let go of the pasted selection. It will keep dragging it around the sheet
as if I am holding down on it.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a file with >3 sheets, all with several columns. In each cell of each
column, there are a few words of text.
2(a): Hover the cursor back and forth over the sheet names. Click on one sheet,
then try to click on another.
2(b): Select and copy three cells in a row. Paste anywhere else. Try to click
anywhere else in the sheet.

Actual Results:  
2(a): The user is not holding down any button, but the cursor grabs grabs the
sheets, drags them along, and often then deletes their contents.
2(b): The pasted selection is dragged along, even though the user is not
holding down any button.

Expected Results:
2(a): It should be possible to click on individual sheets, and then work on the
selected sheet. It should be possible to hold down on a sheet and drag it left
or right, and for this to be released when the user releases the hold-down
button.
2(b): It should be possible to navigate away from pasted cells.


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
This happens when I use my mouse, and also when I completely unplug the mouse
and use the trackpad. This behaviour only happens within LibreOffice Calc, no
other programme. This leads me to believe that the source of the problem is
LibreOffice Calc, not my mouse/trackpad or my own behaviour.

This unwanted dragging has made the programme very difficult to use, and the
deleting of contents has made me lose a lot of work.
