Hi all. I needed to recompile Gnumeric with more than 256 columns. So, I modified SHEET_MAX_COLS in gnumeric.h and recompiled. At this point, I hit a snag in gnumeric-canvas.c:1285 #error We need a better solution to the rtl event kludge with SHEET_MAX_COLS so large.
My request is: Would it be possible (probably in Gnumeric 1.8, but not the 1.6 series) to have the maximal number of columns (and rows) simply limited by memory constraints (endianess)? I would like the maximal number to be virtually unlimited, but have the DEFAULT number of columns in a new sheet to be a run-time input (via Gconf). If I decide to open a sheet that is larger than the default, but still smaller than the maximum, Gnumeric should open it without problems. Likewise if I add a column/row when I've reached the default, I would like the sheet to grow. If this is possible, please tell me if you want me to file a bug request on this feature. If it isn't, can you explain why please? One bug: When trying to add a column, Gnumeric doesn't give any warning that non-blank cells are about to be pushed off the edge of the sheet. Is this known, or should I open it in Bugzilla?
