[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 150739] autofill overwrites existing data without warning
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150739 --- Comment #7 from Eike Rathke --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #5) > In > fact you can double click the rectangle at right bottom to auto fill the > neighboring cells. Note this is not about double clicking the fill handle (which either stops at a cell with content, or overwrites all for an already filled range; which the mentioned bugs were about) but doing a manual drag fill ("extend the selection") with the fill handle. Confusingly the term AutoFill seems to be used for both. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150739 --- Comment #6 from Peter Toye --- I go with comment 4 here. That way, people who are worried about accidentally overwriting data can have their workflow interrupted. Those who prefer not to have their workflow interrupted can opt not to do so. While there is obviously a need to follow 'competitors' (surely 'MS Office' would be more accurate), I cannot see the reason to slavishly copy every design bug that MS have introduced. Surely we should be trying to produce a better product, not a carbon copy. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150739 --- Comment #5 from Heiko Tietze --- It's expected to overwrite content (and in alignment to competitors). In fact you can double click the rectangle at right bottom to auto fill the neighboring cells. Any warning is counterproductive to the very efficient workflow. I recommend to resolve this request as WF. Some related tickets: bug 66890 - Double-clicking fill handle should also overwrite down the entire range => WFM bug 108209 - Autofill overwrites data with mixed empty and filled cells => FIX bug 126767 - Autofill doesn't overwrite data in continuously filled cells => FIX -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150739 --- Comment #2 from Peter Toye --- I take your point about it being an enhancement request. I don't quite get your second point, though. I'm suggesting a warning message on the lines of "You are trying to put data into a cell which already contains data. Do you want to continue?", which appears when you paste data into a cell. Why are Paste and Autofill treated differently here? How would that severely affect workflow? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
