Package: gnumeric
Version: 1.0.6-2
Severity: wishlist
Gnumeric has the "hide" function for hiding columns and cells. However,
in order to unhide them, columns on either side of the hidden ones must
be selected. e.g. the docs say that "If columns D, E, and F have been
hidden, the selection must span at least across columns C and G for this
menu item to unhide columns D, E, and F."
But if the left-most columns, A, B and C, say, have been hidden, then this
usual procedure of selecting adjacent columns to unhide does not work (there
is no "-A" column). You can only select column D (or even D and E), but
this does not let A,B and C to be unhid.
A,B and C can be unhid by explicitly typing in A1:C1 in the nagivation box,
then selecting Format->Column->Unhide from the top menu. But this seems
awkward.
Wouldn't it be better if selecting the left-most visible column (D in this
case) would allow the hidden columns to the left of it (A,B and C, or,
possibly better, just C) to become unhidden, using the Unhide function in
the normal right-click context menu?

------- Additional Comment #2 From Jody Goldberg 2005-08-04 02:11 UTC on
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84275 -------
Actually it is not true. You can select D and drag past the edge to include
the hidden cols. I'd rather not clutter the menus with a
'unhide adjacent cols'
or something like it. Any other ideas ?
-------
To me, this seems like a fairly intuitive way of handling this case, so I'm
closing this bug report. If you have further input, please provide it
directly to the upstream developers through
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84275
Kind regards,
Ray
