Bug ID: 107257
Summary: Default to Use Absolute Reference to Sheet Name for
Cell Reference to Another Sheet
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Because of Bug 85538, cell referencing between different sheets is a nightmare
in LibreOffice - under the default behaviour, when you set the reference to
another sheet and then copy/move the sheet to a new file, the data gets messed
up as the default behaviour uses relative reference.
This enhancement request is to request libreoffice by default will use absolute
reference (i.e., add a "$" mark before the sheet name). This will retain the
data when move/copy sheets, and also retain the "feature" of relative reference
between sheets.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. New Calc, type 1 in A1 of Sheet1.
2. Add Sheet2, in Sheet2.A2 type in "=", then click Sheet1.A1.
Current behaviour:
formula shows as "=Sheet1.A1"
Expected behaviour:
formula shows as "=$Sheet1.A1" (i.e., $ is added before the name of sheet).
