------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Oct 24 03:09:08 -0700 2006 ------- Calc's current behavior when clicking "Sum" button on formula toolbar with x*y range selection does not seem to make much sense. What Calc currently does is filling of selected range with randomly generated formulas (see repro steps below). I doubt that this is what user could ever want to happen, let alone want often. I suggest mimicking competing spreadsheet by inserting "Sum" below (and enhance behavior by inserting it above selected range or sideways, depending on if Ctrl and/or Shift keys are pressed). Repro steps: 1. Open attached "summing-example.ods" in Calc. 2. Select B2:D11 range and click "Sum" button on "Formula" toolbar. Note how contents in all cells in the range is replaced by seemingly random formulas like "=SUM(B#REF!:B1)". Suggested behavior: 2. Select range B2:D11, click "Sum". Calc should generate "Sum(B1:B11)", "Sum (C1:C11)", "Sum(D1:D11)" in cells B12, C12, D12 respectively. Suggested enhancement: 2. Select range B2:D11, hold Ctrl key and click "Sum". Calc should generate "Sum(B1:B11)", "Sum(C1:C11)", "Sum(D1:D11)" in cells B1, C1, D1 respectively. Holding Shift key should cause Calc to insert "Sum(Bx:Dx)" in cell Ex for every row of selection. Combining Ctrl and Shift should cause Calc to insert sums to the left of the range. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
