Hello Tang, unfortunately I do not really know what causes the crash. However, what worries me is the usefulness of 'Select All' (CTRL+A) in spreadhseet applications (both OOo and Excel).
LM -> ALL developers (& user experience) What are your opinions on 'Select ALL'? I performed the following tests: A.) 'CTRL+A' => 1.) in MS Excel: selects A1:?P?37 (selection as drawn seems to extend beyond shown boundaries) 2.) in OOo Calc: selects A1:Z68 (selection seems NOT to extend beyond these boundaries) B.) paste => 1.) In MS Excel, this paste operation filled all cells in the range A1:IV65536 (in a matter of < 10 s). 2.) OOo Calc => Crash *However, does ANY user need exactly the A1:IV65536 range*??? I have serious doubts that I will ever need EXACTLY this range. A more sensible approach, giving the user some control over the range selections, was presented in my previous post. I would welcome any comments on that proposal.
