<pre>Description:
1. enter text in a cell
2. try to drag (and thus cut/paste) the cell to another cell location
bug: with dozens of attempts it's possible, but the area where the mouse must
be hovered is far too small for easy use
excel behavior: when you hover the mouse, the cursor icon changes indicating
that a move operation is possible
calc behavior: the cursor icon never changes, whether or not you've positioned
the mouse such that a copy/drag operation is possible
general: this is a systemic UI problem - Calc forces the uses into trial and
error mode in many formatting/cell border/cell background scenarios
Steps to Reproduce:
1. enter text in a cell
2. try to drag (and thus cut/paste) the cell to another cell location
Actual Results:
bug: with dozens of attempts it's possible, but the area where the mouse must
be hovered is far too small for easy use
calc behavior: the cursor icon never changes, whether or not you've positioned
the mouse such that a copy/drag operation is possible
general: this is a systemic UI problem - Calc forces the uses into trial and
error mode in many formatting/cell border/cell background scenarios
Expected Results:
Calc should behave like Excel but be smarter, less buggy and more elegantly
designed. Excel is a UI nightmare. Calc is better in some areas; worse in
others. It's very disappointing
Reproducible: Always
