--- Comment #9 from Rafael Lima <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #8) > Nothing to say against an extension, however. And improving it as well as > having it on our extension site is a big plus. Other opinions? The extension is also available in: https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/5747 I just need to update it to the latest version in LO extension website. (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #8) > I don't see this as a frequent use case. It is hard to assess how frequent this use case is. All I can say is that I use it very often. The 3 main use cases for me are: 1) Copying and pasting data from web pages often result in empty lines depending on how the original web page was organized; so removing these empty rows in a quick manner is very helpful 2) Sometimes working with long data tables I need to manually remove some lines. It is easier to simple remove their contents first (using Delete key) than using the Remove Row command (which shows a dialog, requiring more clicks). After removing all the rows, I simply compact the data table. 3) In lectures, I often use Calc to illustrate how a certain algorithm processes a matrix of data, which involves deleting rows one at a time. So what I do is simply delete the cell contents (using the Delete key) and at the end of the iteration I compact the data using this extension. I understand that these uses cases may be a little "niche", which is why I developed it as an extension. But if some day a dev wishes to implement this functionality into LO natively, I would be very pleased =) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
