            Bug ID: 129573
           Summary: Selecting or highlighting a word or group of words,
                    arrow key to determine where cursor is to rest, at the
                    start or end
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
A feature not in LO, is when highlighting a word or group of words, in Calc or
Writer, and then wanting the cursor to either start at the beginning or ending,
the choice is made by touching the right or left arrow key. In LO that choice
is not there, as in M. S. O. & Google doc.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Highlight a word or group of words, in Calc or Writer
2.Wanting the cursor to rest at the start of the highlight(by hitting left
arrow key) or ending (by hitting right arrow key).
3.The choice is made by touching the right or left arrow key. 

Actual Results:
Highlighted a group of words, from far right to start. Hit arrow right or left
arrow key, cursor rest at end. If highlighting from left to end, hitting either
arrow key the cursor rest at left. And at times past selected area by one
space.

Expected Results:
All other programs has cursor resting always at end if right arrow key is hit
and cursor resting on start if left arrow key is hit. And not past the selected
area by a space, but within the selected space. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
As many are used to coming from Google doc or M.S.O.
