keyboard equivalent of dragging the little black square to generate sequence
What is the keyboard way of generating a sequence?
The pic below shows libre office calc. In order to generate the sequence of numbers 1 to 10. I simply enter few numbers of the sequence (in ascending order) one below the other. In this case three numbers. I select all three. And I click and drag the little black box as pointed out in the image until I reach my desired ending number.
How to achieve this via keyboard only?

- Enter the first number of the sequence
- Select the range to fill (SHIFT+Down)
Use Alt to navigate the menu: Alt+e, i, e, Enter
This is a shortcut for
Edit
->Fill
->Series
As a mnemonic, adapt the children's song "Old Macdonald," substituting IO (Input/Output) for the Enter key:
Old Macdonald had a series of animals, (alt) E I E IO

The keyboard equivalent to the requested function is placed under the Edit
->Fill
->Series
command in the menu. In newer LibreOffice versions the location is Sheet
->Fill Cells
->Series...
.
Before running the command, select the cells to be filled in by using Shift + navigation keys (Shift+Down in the case of OP).
Then you may use mnemonics for running the command. Or even better, set a custom keyboard shortcut via Tools
->Customize...
->Keyboard
. In the dialog, select Category = Edit
, Function = Fill Series
and set for example Ctrl+Enter as the shortcut.

According to LibreOffice's Help page for Calc there is no keyboard shortcut for that.
