[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 155016] New feature: set the source/scope of AutoComplete search
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155016 --- Comment #3 from Tylla --- Thank you guys for the prompt reply! As Heiko already pointed out Validity is for a different workflow. While the argument about the plenty of options is true and agreeable, the other one about all the other spreadsheet tools is way weaker. A feature shouldn't be considered on the base that some other software has it or not, but solely on the base whether if it makes sense and if it is feasible or not. <> :))) (actively trying not to offend anyone) As about the repeating/reused data: I wrote the 4 member option list as a logical expansion of my original need. Maybe I overshot the target a little bit. Sorry! So if I want to present my strict needs, that's about getting AutoComplete results from the same column but different worksheet, so the two options would be: "Current column of current sheet (default)"/"Current column of all sheets" Btw in the past I had several times the need to use the other two options as well, but I can't precisely recall those cases, so let's skip that for now. :) Thank you for taking the time to think about my idea, maybe it takes root in one-form-or-another. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 154788] The default width of Calc columns should be a bit narrower
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154788 V Stuart Foote changed: What|Removed |Added CC||vsfo...@libreoffice.org --- Comment #26 from V Stuart Foote --- 64 points = .89 in --or-- 2.260 cm But I kind of doubt our STD_COL_WIDTH (of 64 pts) and STD_ROWHEIGHT_DIFF (of 23 pts) are being calculated the same way on Excel where UI works with character units (default of 8.43 ch and 15 pt height). Also, folks do realize that the "default" cell on MS Excel is formatted with 11 point Calibri, while in LibreOffice Calc we use 10 point Liberation Sans? LO fits 11 at 10pt "12345678901" MS fits 8 at 11pt "12345678" Compounded by the fact that few os/DE actually work at 100% scaling. Windows for example defaults to 125% scaling on a Full HD 1920x1080px display--so it is a moving target unless we move to a character "ch" based UI. Point is a user can adjust their environment to match an Excel session when working in OOXML, but for our ODF originated sheets there is no real point. -1 for any change from current LO defaults pursuing interoperability. It would not offer any real relief as we are unlikely to adopt a UI oriented to character counts for Calc column widths. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

TNR and friends are MS fonts, and Carlito at al are a metric-compatible substitutes for a *different* set of MS fonts. LO is not in a position to phase fonts out from users' documents, it can only provide descent substitutions (which it does, both for older and for newer MS fonts).

[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 154788] The default width of Calc columns should be a bit narrower
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154788 --- Comment #21 from Eike Rathke --- For understanding the values: Measurement of cell widths is in typographical points (1/72 inch) and the internal calculation is in twips (twentieth of an inch point, 1/20 point = 1/1440 inch) The current value is 64 points or 1280 twips, which is 0.8" or 2.25775cm. The proposed value would be 54 points or 1080 twips, which is 0.75" or 1.905cm. The nearest value to 20mm would be 57 points or 1140 twips, which is 0.79166" or 2.01081cm. If we defined cell widths directly in twips instead we could get nearest to 20mm with 1134 twips, which is 0.7875" or 2.00025cm or 56.7 points. A rather odd value for typography.. and quite likely provoking round-off errors in layout. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154788 --- Comment #17 from ady --- (In reply to Rafael Lima from comment #12) > I like the idea of 1.905 cm (0.75"). May I ask, why? Is it the amount of digits (9, without separators)? Is there any non-subjective reasoning? Let's not forget that the default font is not mono-spaced (i.e. not fixed-width), so the width for digits is not the same as some other set of characters. Users with accounting requirements might like some default, whereas engineers might prefer some other default width. The current calculation accuracy of 15 digits might sound ideal for some users to match the default width.

I agree in principle. We don't use inches in Palestine/Israel. The thing is that the current width is close to an inch, so it seemed more intuitive to think about it in those terms.
