------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jan 8 17:11:33 +0000 2008 ------- Not sure if this matters, but in a survey of other spreadsheet programs... A major commercial known-by-everyone spreadsheet program considers cell borders and cell background color to be "content". KSpread (the KDE Spreadsheet program) doesn't make a "content" determination; it always prints something, even if the page is blank. Gnumeric is stricter about content than Calc; in order to print a cell, the cell must contain some content (e.g. a space). So in Calc for "Sitzplan Physiksaal.ods," a single space in ANY cell would allow EVERYTHING to be printed. In Gnumeric, ALL cells with borders would need to have a space in order for EVERYTHING to be printed. Given this, I think Calc should follow suit and consider cell borders and background to be considered as content, so that user expectations are met. (Really, who wants to dig through the Calc preferences dialog to find the "Suppress output of empty pages" checkbox, especially when most people [0] are going to consider a non-blank page NOT being empty, and thus won't think it applies to them anyway!) [0] "most people" statistic completely made up The key point is matching user expectations. Pointing to documentation isn't sufficient, as most people [0] don't read the documentation in the first place. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
