I consider myself 'fairly' proficient in office suites and been using LO for so many years, probably since '08 so yeah anyways, today i had to make a quick presentation and suddenly i was unable to select multiple objects. i tried the mouse, tried to ctrl-click but nothing worked. was on 6.4.2.2 and immediately updated to 6.4.5.2 but same thing. came here to add a bug report and i see this thread and found out, to my surprise that LO allows that functionality but over "shift-click'. I would say, ever since i have been working with GUI, be it ms office or browsers or any other software, ctrl-click is the "status quo". it has nothing to do with microsoft. its just what people are used to. my question. as a new LO user coming from say ms office, how do i know shift-click selects multiple objects as opposed to what my muscle memory does because as a more than casual user, my muscle memory failed and that is not productive I see firefox allows both ctrl-click, shift-click but thats another story.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
