A few different examples follow, FWIW. One worksheet might contain detailed information on many items. Another worksheet might have summary information. On each of those, you might need to focus on a certain area of the whole worksheet, or you might need to see "the bigger picture" for diverse reasons. Since Calc lacks the possibility of Tracing Precedents/Dependents on a different worksheet, there is a chance that both, the "details" and the "summary" might be located in the same worksheet, and so sometimes users need to focus on one area, whereas sometimes the need is to see the relations between different parts of a worksheet that might contain dozens or hundreds of columns. While building a worksheet (e.g. formulas), you might have to zoom in/out in order to click/select some range. That range might be near the cell that contains the formula, or it might be much further away. While this happens, other worksheets on the same workbook were already built in the past and they require a different zoom factor, that rather should not be changed each time. One worksheet might contain a lot of ("detail") data, a second worksheet might contain a "summary" of the data, and a third worksheet might contain graphs related either to the summary or to the detail data. Each of these might deserve a different use of zoom factors. These are just a few examples of possible reasons to have different zoom factors on different worksheets, all being part of the same workbook. Having said that, there is also the possibility that a user wants to change the zoom factor to all the worksheets (at once), instead of having to change it independently for each worksheet. My point is that there are diverse workflows and needs. Sometimes the zoom factor should rather be modified for all the worksheets in a workbook at once, whereas sometimes each worksheet should rather have its own zoom factor independent of the others. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
