Bug #: 53602
Summary: Copy value from cell above by one button click
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 3.5.4 release
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Spreadsheet
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Hi.
I have a little feature request. I hope you think the idea is good :)
Background:
At work we have a software that we use to document the time spend at work. It
looks like a spreadsheet but is not quite. It does have rows and coloumns to
enter time values and other data.
The interresting stuff:
When entering data into any cells in the software, I can copy the information
from the above cell simply by hitting the "/" button.
So, my experience for use spreadsheet applications is that I very often enters
the same value that the cell above. And I'm sure that have a simple method to
copy the cell (without the tedious methods by using mouse or arrow buttons
Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V) like just pressing a rare* button would increase workflow.
* Means - how often do we actualy have a cell that start with slash character?
Of course it must be possible to turn the behaviour on and off in case a user
need to enter a slash character.
With this non-common feature activated, keyboard click on active cell will have
this effect:
1. Hit the / character and then Enter or Tab --> Cell will show he value from
the cell above. Hit Tab or Enter will confirm and make cell content be copy of
cell above.
2. Hit the / character and then another character --> Cell will threat the
typed text in a common way. When another character is typed, the cell will
change from displaying a copy of above cell to display the actual characters
that user typed.
Thanks :)
