[Libreoffice-qa] Bugzilla Tip: Ever want to make private notes on a bug report?

2016-01-07 Thread Robinson Tryon
Hi all,

Here's a handy tip to help you get the most out of using our Bugzilla instance:

If any of you have ever wanted to make a private note on a bug report,
feel free to use the 'Tags' field. The content in there is only
viewable to you, and editing that field won't send email to any other
users (so don't be shy about tagging up bugs with your notes!)

You can query on the field just like searching the Whiteboard (look
under 'Custom Search') , so I've personally used the Tags field to
keep track of things like repro needs, people whom I've poked about
fixing a particular bug, or bugs that need some cleanup help.

It's really nice to be able to keep my notes associated directly with
bug reports instead of keeping them in a separate document or external
list. Because you're the only one who will see it, you can keep the
notes as messy or as tidy as you like!


Best,
--R

[Libreoffice-qa] [QA] Need someone having Excel

2016-01-07 Thread Gérard Fargeot
Hi all,

For Bug 96923 (https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96923),
we need someone with Excel.
The purpose is to check if Excel treat numbers written as text (with '
before) like numeric 1 in SUMIFS.

If it is the case, can somenone provide a short file with mixed value:
1 written as numeric value,
1 with a ' befrore in cell with standard formatting,
1 in a cell formatted as text.

And various calculation within this data:
Simple SUM, COUNTIF, SUMIF, COUNTIFS, SUMIFS.
and (not sure if necessary) some search functions like (V/H)LOOKUP, MATCH)

I don't have any version of Excel myself.

Gérard

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] [QA] Need someone having Excel

2016-01-07 Thread Gérard Fargeot
The reporter first, yhen Joel close yhe bug report.
I'm not sure this is a good idea. The screenshot provided by Miroslav show
that Excel handles functions in the same way whether the argument either
text or number.
=COUNTIF(range;1)
=COUNTIF(range;"1")
=COUNTIF(range;"=1")
provides the same result in Excel with range having text data while Calc
count only numerical values for the 1st one.

This apply to COUNTIF(S) and SUMIF(S).

What is the opinion of dev's about this (Eike or another)? Should we comply
to Excel in this case or not ?

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] [QA] Need someone having Excel

2016-01-07 Thread m.a.riosv
Hi Gerard,

about comment in A4, If I'm not wrong, modify cell format never changes the
cell content. Formatting the cell as text after enter a number or a formula,
it doesn't convert them to text.

about the criteria as number only summing for numbers in the criteria range,
I think in calc interpreting text as number is only done with direct
references, not with ranges, putting in B6: =SUM(B3:B6) results is 2 not 4
how results with =B3+B4+B5+B6. There are some options in
Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice calc/Formula - Detailed Calculation Settings
- Details, but I think don't help in this case.

Regards.
Miguel Ángel.

[Libreoffice-qa] Bugzilla: Standardizing format of Keywords

2016-01-07 Thread Robinson Tryon
Hi all,

As mentioned during the ESC call, to keep things standardized in
Bugzilla, we've made a small change to two Keywords:

have-backtrace -> haveBacktrace
want-backtrace -> wantBacktrace

If you have any bookmarks to queries that refer to these Keywords (or
etc), please make sure to update them. If you have any questions,
please let me know!

Best,
--R
