            Bug ID: 143733
           Summary: Make selection border wider
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: al.le at gmx.de

Description:
This has been first noted in Bug 142959, but I think it deserves a separate
ticket.

IMO the selection border in Calc (i.e. the border that marks the current cell)
is drawn in a suboptimal way. It's drawn *within* the cell space thus eating
space from the information in focus (the current cell).

IMO Excel does it in a smarter way. Excel draws the border around the cell, but
the border is *beyond* the cell so that the "interesting" information is not
"cropped".

See the attached images that should explain what I mean.

Steps to Reproduce:
Create an empty sheet and put the "cursor" to the cell B2.

Actual Results:
The selection border is within the cell.

Expected Results:
The selection border is beyond the cell.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This would make Calc visually more attractive.
