Priority: medium
Bug ID: 76310
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: ODF incompliance: Cannot use newline in formula
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: mikekagan...@hotmail.com
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: Inherited From OOo
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
OASIS OpenFormula specification allows using SPACE, TAB, LINE FEED and CARRIAGE
RETURN as space characters. It also specifies that embedded newline be
represented by single LINE FEED, and requires implementations to "retain
whitespace entered by the original formula creator and use it when saving or
presenting the formula, and should not add additional whitespace unless
directed to do so during the process of editing a formula" (see
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.html#__RefHeading__1017970_715980110).
Currently, Calc does allow entering newline when editing cell content (using
Ctrl+Enter), but as soon as cell editing is finished, all newlines in formula
are converted to spaces.
This is incompliant with the specification. This limitation is inherited from
OOo 3.3.
