> Steps to Reproduce:
> 1.Create relative formula in several rows (sum cell:cell +othercell)
> 2.slect a middle row and rt click Insert row above
> 3.drag above row cell down to copy formula
I don't understand why the 3rd step is here, it isn't mentioned in the
description, and as I understand it's the "fixing" method, isn't it?

My understanding of the phenomenon is that Calc keeps the references to the
existing cells. Ie. if you add a new 5th row, E4 didn't change, so the
reference to it stays the same, while B5:D5 moved down a row, so they have to
change in the formula. If they referenced a cell in row 5, they'd change as
well.

This is different from when using fill down, when you're extending a formula to
previously uncovered ranges.

Therefore I'm closing this as NOTABUG, Eike, please correct me if there's a
flaw in the above reasoning.
