680m74 - Writer - Table Open a document with a table and some text within it. from the beginning of one of the cells Hold shift and right arrow key to select the contents. after reaching the last character the selection runs over to select the next cell also. What should be done: After reaching the last character / or pressing Shift + end, the first cell should be selected completely. On the next arrow press, the selection should be carried onto the adjacent cells.
MRU->FME: the described (should-be-)order of selecting table contents cells sounds more logical to me than the current "State of the Art".
