[libreoffice-users] selection across page boundaries in Writer

At some time in the last year, as I have updated from OpenOffice to
LibreOffice on OpenSuSE 11.4, I have lost the ability to select multiple
pages of text by simply left mouse dragging down in the document.  If I
cross a page border now, the light blue selection highlight for the text in
the page disappears and a dotted line of the same blue color appears around
the page.  As the document scrolls onwards, the text in the next page gets
selected until its page boundary is reached, when the same thing happens. 
Is this a setting issue?  A compatibility issue with documents created in
OO. sometimes as much as 3 years ago?  Any suggestions welcomed.  I do a lot
of cutting and pasting between documents, and this is certainly slowing me
down.
