Hello, to whom it may concern, I am wondering if there is a way to have the background permanently change when I click on a cell that has color. This would then allow me to move to another cell and fill it with that color.
the 'format paintbrush' tool on the standard toolbar seems to be what you look for. just select the cell from which you want to copy background, double-click the 'format paintbrush' button and start selecting cells or cell ranges to which you want to copy background colour; press escape when done. if you have no format paintbrush on the standard toolbar, then go to 'tools -> customise -> toolbars', choose 'standard' from the 'toolbar' drop-down list and place a tick against the format paintbrush in the 'commands' list. if it is already checked but nevertheless doesn't appear on the toolbar, then click on a thin button with a downward-pointing triangle on the right of the toolbar; hopefully, you will find the paintbrush in the drop-down list that appears. ------------------------------------------- List Conduct Guidelines: http://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
