How can I click and drag a cell in calc

How do I click on a cell and drag the contents to another cell in Calc?

Click with Ctrl pressed.

@gabix - thanks; pretty much shorter than my solution.

Hello,

for a single cell content to drag you need to:

  • click the cell (keep mouse key pressed)
  • move cursor one cell down (or up, right, left - doesn’t matter) and move cursor back (still mouse key pressed - and you’ll see the cell highlighted with some background color).
  • Release mouse key and click mouse once more
  • Now drag the cell content to the new location

Hope that helps.

Thank you! It works!

On a Mac:

  1. Command + left click the cell you want to move (the cell should be highlighted)
  2. Ensure you only have that cell highlighted
  3. Left Click and hold down your click
  4. Drag your mouse to where you want the cell to move to

Steps 3 and 4 work for when you have multiple cells highlighted as well.
