            Bug ID: 88753
           Summary: LibreOffice Calc - Insert Row inherits styling but not
                    calculation functions in new cells as exist in
                    adjacent cells
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.3.5.2 release
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

User has a table with let's say 12 rows and 24 columns. 

Top row is description. 

Then per row. 
Two manual data entry cells in col 1 and 2 and then a calculation in 3 (+, avg
or something else) is performed. Repeat for whole row. 

All rows share the same layout and functionality. Formulas are vertically
dragged from the first data row through the column. (faster and easier)  

Now here's the thing. A previous enhancement request works now, in that an
inserter row between two of the same existing rows, inherits the styling but
not the calculations. 

Inserting a new row in-between any two rows above, all the cells will be plain
text.

So as a user I have to then, manually drag the formula over up/down from each
third cell. Which gets tedious when you're adding a row here and there over
time, vs having it inherit style + functions. 

Propose for there, if not a new default to smart insert row, for there to be
INSERT ROW SIMPLE and INSERT ROW SMART (( for lack of better wording )) or
something to that extent, which will look at the row higher and lower, and say,
hey I'm in the middle of these calculations and breaking the chain, let me be a
calculation cell too. 

Please adjust and categorize/assign etc as needed. I'm never entirely sure what
the best way is.

Hope to see this improved soon. 

Thank you for listening.
