Simple Selections

• The Gnumeric Manual, version 1.12
• Working with Data
• Selecting Cells and Cell Ranges

The simplest selection involves a single cell. Simply clicking with the left hand mouse button while the mouse cursor is over a cell will cause that cell to become selected.

The selected cell is indicated by a dark double line with a small square in the bottom right corner. The selected cell is the the one that is currently in focus and will take any input for the keyboard.

To make a cell become the selected cell, simply move the white-cross cursor over the cell and press the left mouse button.
