>From 3.5.0 builds onward, the multi-line input for the Formula Input Bar (ScInputBarGroup) provides direct editing of a an over height cell including cursor and page movements (provided by the edit engine) IMHO resolving bug 34689.
So yes, the Calc sheet rendered to VCL canvas only scrolls by single sheet rows. Note also that the provided scroll bar control (up, down, and thumb slide) also move in full row increments. IIUC more precise/incremental scrolling has been necessary because the entire sheet is the extend of the scroll, millions of cells-thousands of columns and rows. Contrasted to Writer tables, which provide precise/incremental scrolling (and smooth scrolling) Calc sheets are much more complex. Rendering them for more precise scrolling seems desirable but likely non-performant if the entire sheet is being manipulated. Meaning there would need to be a new view shell framework to allow off screen caching of a view port onto the sheet--controlled by the range of visible/working cells. Complex stuff, and requires major refactoring of Calc needing some UX envisioning. But the refactoring (to support some semblance of view ports into a sheet) may be too much for a GSOC project. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/375395 Title: [Upstream] scrolling only by full line height Status in LibreOffice: Confirmed Status in OpenOffice: Unknown Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in openoffice.org package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: openoffice.org If I have spreadsheet document with large, multiline cells, I can't scroll to distance equal some part of line. full line is scrolled at once.
