            Bug ID: 132317
           Summary: Delete key behaves like Bakspace in Calc when editing
                    text
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: J22Gim at gmail.com

Description:
When using CTRL+Del to erase everything to the right of the cursor in Calc, at
some point it switches to CTRl+Backspace instead.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Calc and place your cursor in any cell 
2. write any text, preferably 2 or more sentences (the longer the easier is to
see this bug)
3. now place the cursor at the end of the 1st sentence and try to delete all
the rest (ie all characters to the right of the period). To do that quickly I
use CRTL+Del. 

Actual Results:
Calc starts erasing 'eating' word by word to the right of the cursor as
intended. But if you keep presing CRTL+Del when no more words are available to
the right to be deleted, Calc switches to the behavior of CTRL+Backspace,
actually erasing words to the LEFT or the cursor

Expected Results:
It should do what it is told to do: erase words to the right of the cursor. If
there are no more words to the right of the cursor, stop deleting.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
This happens when using CTRL+Del. Using only Del key works as expected
(although of course it is much slower because it deletes characters one by
one).
