------- Additional comments from gost...@openoffice.org Fri Jun 19 18:21:56 +0000 2009 ------- @nn: I've read issue 88897, and I think I understand the implications, but it IS incredibly annoying - so annoying, in fact, that I still prefer 2.4.2 for spreadsheets. Being able to input time values this way (00:40) is also something that someone new to OO.o expects. There should be at least some workaround. IIRC, Quattro for DOS (yes, I'm that old), at a time when you couldn't input time values directly in most spreadsheets (not Lotus, not Mutiplan), had a shortcut key combination, I think it was ^D, to indicate to the input parser that the next value was a date or time value. So, two suggestions as a compromise/workaround: 1) couldn't the input parser reinstate the old behavior for cells formatted as time? Or, at least 2) give us a shortcut that tells the input parser that the next value is not a cell/column reference but indeed a time value that should be converted from "7:12" to the number 0.3 Any of those would be great. Thanks for doing great work, and I know that pleasing everyone is impossible G.Ostner --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
