------- Additional comments from crugd...@openoffice.org Mon Mar 29 09:58:11 +0000 2010 ------- In issue 5930 alastair_paton gave a clear argument why this issue is rather a dependant than a duplicate for 5930. ------- Additional comments from alastair_paton Tue Sep 8 22:55:17 +0000 2009 ------- <quote> Back in 2004 two separate requirements were blurred together within this issue and I believe that blurring has hindered engineering notation in gaining appropriate implementation priority. The two [blurred] issues are: A. Engineering Notation, and B. SI Prefixes. A. ENGINEERING NOTATION The requirement for engineering notation was well articulated on 17 Jun 02 by the initiating post for this this issue [5930, "Engineering Notation"]. The only thing I would add is "Engineering notation is a version of scientific notation" [Ref: Wikipedia article on Engineering Notation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_notation ] as this may help in the implementation of engineering notation. B. SI PREFIXES On 14 Jan 04 [24373, "Engineering and SI/MKSA notation support for Calc"] was raised, and 9 hours later it was deemed to be a duplicate of [5930, "Engineering Notation"]. I disagree with this assessment as they are are not the same issue, nor a double of the same issue. [24373, "Engineering and SI/MKSA notation support for Calc"] does describe a requirement, and that is for SI Prefix, viz, "An SI prefix is a name or associated symbol that precedes a basic unit of measure" [Ref: Wikipedia article on SI Prefix http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Si_prefix ]. </qote> --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
