cannot disable scroll lock in libreoffice-calc (using a dell xps)

I have a dell xps which has no scroll-lock key.

Nevertheless, when I open libreoffice-calc the scrolllock mode is enabled and I can't disable it, which renders calc completely useless.

Is there some way to disable it or to emulate pressing the scroll-lock key?

Using ubuntu 18.04.5, libreoffice-calc: 6.0.7.3

Just for the record, I could solve it uninstalling calc and removing the config folder, like this:

sudo apt purge libreoffice-*
rm -fr ~/.config/libreoffice/
sudo apt install libreoffice-calc

I guess there must be a better solution, but I'll leave it here until a better answer pops up
