If a user "select all" and "paste" he normaly has the intention to have the clipboard content in every cell (or block of cells). But maybe he don't know the consequenses of this, he don't see how big is a hole sheet. This is also because the sliders are not proportional if you are at the top of a sheet. In a text document it is more easy. A hole doc is all pages with a letter in (or space or return). In calc it is for a simple user not calculable. So the question is, how big should be the area to paste in (ask the user) or maybe how can it stored more intelligentr (not to store in every cell but store that every cell has content "bla" or that every block of X*Y has that array "a, b, c; d, e, f" as content.) So why not ask the user if a paste operation is requested for a hole table what he realy want? An other possibility is to have a standard table size (which the user can set for every table) and "select all" means that size or (if bigger) all used cells. Anyhow: if an operation needs long (more then i.e. 10 seconds) a status bar and a cancel button is nessesary. And the user should be warned if operations needs huge amount of resources. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
