------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Apr 2 06:54:46 +0000 2008 ------- It would be very innovative (no other spreadsheet program has this feature - as far as I know) and useful to be able to shear the rectangular form of the cells of a row. Problem description: Table headers with a long text result in a very large width of the corresponding column. If I rotate the text to 90° the header row will become very high. If I rotate the text e.g. to 45° there will be a very bad usage (a lot of free space) of the cell itself. Solution: Imagine a row with cells that can be sheared by a free value so that the cells of the row look like a parallelogram. If you rotate text within these cells the space would be used optimally and the looking on printed paper would be unique. I'm sure this feature is hard to implement but very cool to use. Perhaps I coul'd draw an image and attach it to my issue....
