I'm not certain about this one. If it's going to appear in a dialogue box
alongside a default value that can be changed then my wording is not quite
right.

I think the comment can be dropped unless it is meant to be a heading for the
section. The comment just repeats the wording in the coding so i really don't
think it is needed. Segment is probably the best word for a part of a curve.
In 97 i thought the important part of the comment was that the curve might not
pass through all the individual data-points as long as certain conditions are
met. I didn't quite grasp what those conditions are.
Hi. I took it that in 97 the curve now (will) must pass through the
points under the changes. In some other software with splines you have a
parameter for "tightness" (or looseness) that determines if the spline
will pass through the points or if not how tight or loose the curve is
fitted to the points. My guess is that under ODF 1.2 it has been
determined that for observed data points the curve fitted to the points
must pass through the points, and I think this may be technically correct.
I then looked at the regression available to make sure this was not in
relation to fitting a b-spline as a trend curve. It is not, trend curves
are limited to simple curves although the help does hint at how to
develop more complex trend curves.

Hopefully someone is going to have better ideas than mine tho :)

Hi all,
with implementation of the new, ODF1.2 way of B-splines
[http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/3.5#Calc]
some changes in the UI and help are needed. I have collected them in
http://www.rhenschel.homepage.t-online.de/files_to_be_changed.txt
It would be nice, if you have a look and correct them to good English.
If you know other places which need a change, please tell me.
Kind regards
Regina
Hi. How did you want edits conveyed to you. Short one below, did you want the
other in the list
steve
* Supports 32000 sheets and improves the performance of many
operations when working on sheets (inserting of several sheets
should be much faster now). (Markus Mohrhard)
* Handles DDE and external link update failures more gracefully;
instead of turning formulas with a failed link update into errors,
keep the previous values and launch an error message notifying the
user of the link update failure. (Kohei Yoshida)
* The method by which line charts are smoothed has been adapted to
the ODF1.2 standard. (Regina Henschel)
o Closed lines are now smoothed using a “Cubic Spline” and are
completely rounded.
o Open Lines are now smoothed using a “B-Spline” and go
through the given points, interpolating between them.
