            Bug ID: 136497
           Summary: When entering "Name Box" vi keyboard shortcut,
                    existing text is not selected anymore
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: yallabalagan at gmail.com

Description:
This bug is new in version 7; version 6.x worked correctly.

When clicking the Name Box with the mouse, all existing text is selected.

However, when navigating via keyboard (e.g. Ctrl+shift+F5, or Ctrl+Shift+T),
the existing text is not pre-selected.

Why this is a bug:
 1. it worked differently in previous versions.
 2. it's not consistent with mouse click
 3. it disrupts and counterproductive:  There's never a need to editing an
existing name;  using this box only makes sense when entering a new name, or
navigating to a new range address.



Steps to Reproduce:
from a calc worksheet, press Ctrl+Shift+F5 or Ctrl+Shift+T




p.s. 
If there's no assigned keyboard shortcut, then assign a key-combo with: "All
Commasnds > Sheet Area Input Field" (it's an inconsistent name for  "name box",
there's an open bug for this, too)

Actual Results:
text is not selected.
cursor goes to the first position of the text.

Expected Results:
range name text is selected ("highlighted"), same as with clicking the mouse on
the Name Box.



Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
