Description Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2022-11-26 09:37:59 UTC
At least on Ubuntu 20.04 using GNOME 3.36.8, regardless of the VCL used, the shortcut Ctrl + Alt + left or right does not resize the cells of a table.

Even though only the Ctrl + Alt + Up or Down are used for switching workspaces in this GNOME version, I am wondering if the issue is linked to GNOME workspaces. Maybe GNOME-specific.

Side note: nothing is linked to it in Tools > Customize > Keyboard (the shortcuts for resizing columns and rows neither, but they still work). Might just mean they are not configurable.
