This is a comment regarding the printing out of a spreadsheet sheet 
page. I would like the default behaviour to be more like Microsoft 
Office.

This OpenOffice aspect needs a proper rethink as it is extremely 
illogical, and very involved. The Microsoft method is much better.

To print you have to go through three areas of the menu to sort things 
out. 

To see how the page breaks are set up, you have to use 
'View' - 'Page Break Preview'

To set up the page print areas, you have to use
'Format' - 'Page' and 'Format' - 'Print ranges' where in the latter 
there are a few confusing options. This part of the page print setup is
very confusing to understand, and often takes a few minutes to sort 
out. Printing from a particular sheet requires a lot of thought and 
pressing of menu options, and is not intuitive.

To get near to printing, you have to use
'File' - 'Print' which is logical.

The trouble is, setting up printing and print areas is all over the 
place, whereas on Microsoft Office its all in one place, and much more 
logical in its layout. 

Personally I would like it obvious as to which sheet is being printed 
out, and it is better to automatically default to the sheet I'm looking 
at for printing. Using Microsoft Office, I don't have to think too hard 
to print out the sheet I'm using - on OpenOffice it's very involved, and
it shouldn't be.
