Hi,
I would like to easily view which table cells are calculated, that is, which
values would be overwritten if I updated the table (C-u C-u C-u C-c C-c)
We can use a different cell background color (maybe with overlays?) for the
automatic cells, and the normal one for „manual entry“ cells.
This coloring would happen on load and after each table update; no need to do
it in real time.
A table example:
| a |b | percent |m | multiple |
|---+--+---+--+--|
|15 | 112 | 16.80 |2 | 33.6 |
| 2 | 15 | 0.30 | 2.1 | 0.63 |
| 1.2 |7 | 0.08 | 12.5 | 1. |
|---+--+---+--+--|
| max%→ | 16.8 | 5.727 |1 |0 |
#+TBLFM:
$3=($1/100.0)*$2;%.2f::$5=$3*$4::@5$2=vmax(@-I$3..@I$3)::@5$3=vmean(@-I..@I)::@5$4=$3>5.2::@5$5=0
The „automatic“ cells (and thus highlighted) would be: 16.80, 33.6, 0.30,
0.63, 0.08, 1, 16.8, 5.727, 1, 0. But I had to look at the TBLFM to find
it, and that's not easy.
This is an idea, but the code's missing. A similar code exists for cell
highlighting from the formula editor window (C-c '); this would help.
Any comments on the difficulty of this?
