<pre>Description:
This has been first noted in <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_UNCONFIRMED "
title="UNCONFIRMED - Border not visible for the selected cell"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=142959">Bug 142959</a>, 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.</pre>
