Good Evening Mr. Weir & Mr. Cassia, Mr. Weir:Thanks very much for your URL to your article. Very comforting. I'm a user of Open Office not a programer, so some ideas are foreign to me. Mr. Cassia "MY AOO" is in reference to how I feel about the program. I have had to let go of so many things f

[Calc] Feature request: An easier way of laying out form elements

Greetings! Seeking an easier way of laying out form elements. Right now, after creating a form element, one has to spend a lot of time getting the PositionX, PositionY, Width and Height just right if one wants it to fit in nicely with the cell - without blocking out parts of its grid ( http://i.i

Calc: kb shortcut to select entire line?

Is there a keyboard shortcut to select an entire line? (the equivalent of clicking on the line number) It seems like it should be a common operation for deleting lines, but I can't seem to find it. I'd like to be able to do: to select a line - to delete the selected line

[Calc] Feature request: Change default cell width from 2,27cm to 2,50cm

Why is the default cell width in OOo 2,27cm? What about changing it to 2,50cm, a nice round number which will make it easier to grid ones spreadsheets, i.e. imposing order by only having cells that are 2,50cm, 5cm, 7,50cm, 10cm and so on. T

[Calc] "Spacing to contents" doesn't work properly

Hey! If I set "Spacing to contents" in Format Cells => Borders to 1,35mm, exit, and re-enter, OOo (3.3.0) will have changed it to 1,36mm. If I set it to 1,10mm, it will change to 1,09mm. Does anybody know why this is? --Dwayne

Re: Total User confusion

I didn't want to provoke a flame war, but since the article he cited (which I read with interest) mentioned that we'd worked on Smartsuite, make a suggestion that he could use his background to improve Open Office and make it more usable. Perhaps I'll explain what I have in mind. In Approach, I
