------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Oct 23 07:20:07 -0700 2006 ------- SimonBr - In Excel it is TAB to accept the autocomplete, then TAB again to move to the next cell. (The key difference in behavior is due to the fact that OO offers a NEW feature, selecting between multiple autocomplete choices - The NEW behavior should get the New keybinding) TAB to move TAB to accept the highlighted autocomplete offered word. TAB Again to Move. CTRL TAB to move highlighting to a different autocomplete offered word. TAB to accept the highlighted autocomplete word. TAB Again to move. The above description of behavior is BOTH consistent with current Excel Users expectations, AND offers them new features. The Win Win Solution. NN - Who skipped the agreement step? The issue was accepted. The issue has 15 votes. The issue is that after or at auto completion... I have to use a different key combination than Excel. Why do we need discussion to about the agreement that has already been reached that OO cannot currently behave like Excel? I don't Give a flying porcupine about what the default behavior is (I assume there are enough folks on the like excel different from excel bandwagons - please fight that battle somewhere else over a feature I don't need). What I need is an option flag to cause this ability.. hence I need this ability. I don't care how you implement it, as long as I can be at a customers office, download OO (not compile - just download and install), and change the default behavior to be "Like Excel" through 1 or 25 option choices. Until this functionality is included in OO, I can't do that. (PS I don't want to turn off autocomplete. I just want it to work like Excel) Everyone - On the issue of comparability to Writer.... I'm not sure what the behavior in writer is. I haven't tried it, and don't really care. The goal of OO is to provide a free open source solution/replacement for MSOffice. Writer is a a Writer Program. Calc is a Spreadsheet/Flat File database program. The behavior can be different between Writer/Calc because the tool is different. The behavior between Calc/Excel should be the same because the tool is the same (Hammer/Hammer) Yes I admit I'm in a bad mood this morning that has nothing to do with this. The flurry of activity that ends with a request for a user experience review after years of waiting for a fix to the issue just added to it. SO please, Take my harshness with the appropriate grain of salt. I'm normally much nicer than this.
