Hi all,

discussions are important, but when changes (like this one) introduces
different perceptions of the same data I think that discussion about having no
changes in the defacto usage of sort in spreadsheet should have only one output
-> consensous.

>From my perspective (professional and home user of StarOffice, OpenOffice and
Libreoffice) this changes is an error. And people need to trust their
spredsheet outcomes, not to decide what's the useful outcome.

I have simple and more complex spreadsheet, where sort is made on areas with
formulas, and the result is always messed up (tried to make Absolute References
in formulas, but to no avail).

I was using Libreoffice (now at version: 4.2.7.2 Build ID: 420m0(Build:2) in
Mint 17, and I have to go with Apache Open Office due to the uncertainty that
now LibreOffice spreadsheet shows.

Moreover MS Excel files are changed too - so when you receive a MS Excel file,
change it and send back - the receiver (maybe an MSOffice only user) got a
scrambled file..

So please come back ASAP with a definitive patch - don't look only at our
LibreOffice users, but also to the side effects on other non LibreOffice users.

I'm curious about why this change was introduced (what solves) and if any
evaluation about impact was taken in consideration.

Regards

Mirco
