https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120744 --- Comment #18 from Edmund Laugasson --- Sorry about complex formulas but these work and this is not the issue. If you look closer then I just solved the issue with random errors when people write names incorrectly, containing accidental non-relevant symbols. Also I solved an issue to generate strong passwords randomly. This table was necessary just to fix collected names and generate appropriate e-mail addresses with passwords for .csv file for users bulk creation. That file was born when two of the IT-managers from my community sent a request that can I solve such tasks with LibreOffice Calc like fix entered names with accidentally entered inappropriate symbols and generate usable e-mail addresses with strong passwords. As I mentioned - this is not a simple, comfortable bug. Using one task with fixed names and generated e-mails, passwords for another task to offer an automatic refresh. As passwords are generated randomly then this was a good way to prove that auto refresh actually works when you see these values continuously renewing. > That observation is not correct. The formula *displays* the absolute path (as > always for external URIs). Please see there are different files. One is working properly, another not (with #REF!) > Whether subsequently loading a file will take an absolute or a relative URI > depends on the settings when saving the file, Tools -> Options -> Load/Save > -> General, Save URLs relative to file system. This setting is relative by default. But links will appear with absolute path that will give #REF! values. Sounds like that setting is not working. > I don't understand even why you are trying to link an "external" file that is > not an external file but the very same document and have each link reload > every second. Could not find another way to automatically refresh table on another screen. There was requirement from my community to solve the issue and that is what I found. > For referencing data in the same document on a different sheet simply use 3D > references such as $Sheet1.A1 or named ranges, either global or sheet scope > level. That is done in first file (27.46 KB .ods) where autorefreshing works. In that sense I am confused - why I am getting #REF! When to compare the files where autorefresh works and file where it does not work then formulas are same. If you claim this is not a bug but feature then I am totally confused. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

That observation is not correct. The formula *displays* the absolute path (as always for external URIs). Whether subsequently loading a file will take an absolute or a relative URI depends on the settings when saving the file, Tools -> Options -> Load/Save -> General, Save URLs relative to file system. I don't understand even why you are trying to link an "external" file that is not an external file but the very same document and have each link reload every second. Doing so might ask for trouble, yes, though in general it should be handled generously. For referencing data in the same document on a different sheet simply use 3D references such as $Sheet1.A1 or named ranges, either global or sheet scope level. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120744 --- Comment #15 from Edmund Laugasson --- In my humble opinion I included as much information as possible (especially example files) to show the bug. Sorry - I am not a developer (programmer) but hopefully it is enough to see and fix the bug. As far as I tested with 6.2.0.3 version the bug still persist. I guess LibreOffice should be capable for more than just beginner level, for more serious formulas and calculations. Current bug is not a beginner level due to complexity of formulas. These formulas are compiled step-by-step as they are complex. As you claim to understand all the steps then I guess I do not need to create a separate document with step-by-step guidance. I was afraid that this will too long and then nobody reads it. I tried to be as short as possible and did not describe obvious steps like copy formula, etc. To avoid those sub-steps I prepared files: both .ods (ready-to-use) and .txt containing formulas that when reproducing would be easier to copy just formulas (not formatting), perhaps fix cell addresses if needed. These .ods files are much simplified from original files already. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

This is not a comfortable bug but please see these files and you see the behaviour. Without seeing the files and knowing how to link the data, you will not understand the bug. When opening these files, you can see what data is manually entered and what is generated by formulas. Please see also named cells I am using. Under preparing I mean by entering appropriate formulas. You can just copy the formulas in order to repeat the bug. These formulas just replace inappropriate symbols with appropriate one in e-mail addresses. Please check my article with Google Translate - https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=et=en=https%3A%2F%2Flibreoffice.ee%2Fautomaatne-varskendamine-calcis%2F - there is longer explanation with exact steps. When repeating the issue, just copy my prepared data about characters and formulas as plain text to not copy possible buggy formatting.

While repeatedly opened that file (to check whether linked data works or not), there suddenly worked also that "autorefresh-linked" sheet.
