Bug ID: 118100
Summary: VERSION: 5.3.0.3 0 Validity / List (Enhancement
Request - Global Updates / Autofill specific to Data
List
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.3.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: libreoffice-***@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: ***@centurylink.net
Description:
VERSION: 5.3.0.3
I really like, whether excel or LibreCalc the ability to expedite data entry.
And, I've noticed two problems with Validity / List that I haven't found any
answers for in looking (maybe I missed them).
1) If I leave something out in a list, it seems, I have to update the list, and
then update all the cells that that list applies to, then I have to update the
data in those cells after having updated the list.
If there's not a global option for updating a list's data after the fact,
that's a ROYAL pain. Once it works - GREAT. Having to go through the list
EACH time a change is made and update all the associated cells to reflect the
updated data in the list so that they're all current seems to me REALLY gets in
the way of using Validity / List as an option.
I would think the ability to apply changes to the list globally to all cells
affected by the data in that list would be REALLY nice.
I'm a pretty good typer and the lists haven't been too long, but, imagine a LOT
of data in a LOT of cells and I'm not sure "frustration" is the most accurate
word for it (although likely one of the more polite words for it).
2) Autofill is nice. But, as it seems to apply to Validity lists, (or in
general) you get autofill AFTER having entered in information either manually
or from the list.
Say for exmaple I have the words "Candies" vs "Candies (Assorted)" in a list.
I can't get to "Candies (Assorted)" without having typed it in first even
though it's in the list.
Perhaps an option to use default Autofill or Autofill from the list (or some
way to make a distinction between the two)
