            Bug ID: 143217
           Summary: Libreoffice Calc (or possibly all compnents) operate
                    differently on Linux vs. Windows-10
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
Recording a macro in Calc on Windows-10 is different from recording it on a
Linux OS (Mint). Libreoffice 7.1.4.2 is installed on two similar machines with
different OSs. Following the same procedure used on Linux will not work on
Windows version of Calc. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open spreadsheet (in Linux)
2. Click on any cell
3. Click on the Record Macro icon, then:
        a. click any Control-key (Ctl-X, Ctl-C) or any Edit>Control Icon, or
any key on the keyboard. 
        b. continue recording, 
        c. stop Recording and Save.

Actual Results:
The above steps work on Linux but not on Windows. Step #3 on Windows requires
clicking on the Icons for Ctl-X or Ctl-C, because the actuals keys (any keys)
do not work once you clicked on Record Macro. The only way to start the macro
on Windows is clicking on the Icons.

Expected Results:
The same steps used on Linux should work on Windows. They do not.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
The only other way to start the macro on Windows is to click on (point to) a
cell after you started the recording. However such macro will only apply to the
cell you pointed to. To make the macro work globally, only the method used on
Linux will produce the correct results.
