------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed May 7 13:07:25 +0000 2008 ------- The current Data Pilot user interface (UI) let user drop at maximum 8 items into the Data Fields area. This is rather limiting in some cases and there is no real ground for the limitation. Though there exist a workaround - an alternative UI for creating pivot tables, see http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=48636 , it would be much better to remove the limitation in the default UI - most user haven't the experience and time to find and try the alternative UI. Steps to reproduce: 1. In Calc, create a table with 9 or more columns 2. Select the table 3. Data > Data Pilot > Start - the data pilot UI pops up, click ok to display the puvot table config; you can now drag&drop the table's columns onto the Data Field area - but at max. 8 because then it becomes full and there is no way to increase it By the way, it would be also nice to be able to have the possibility to use a single column multiple times as a data field, for example using a differnent grouping function in each occurence - thus I could have both sum and average in the same table w/o the need to duplicate the column in the source data. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
