--- Comment #13 from ady <[email protected]> --- I am having some difficulty understanding the inconvenience/problem. I'll write here a certain procedure, and I'd like to know what is exactly that I am missing. 1. Select an area (or the whole spreadsheet) and format cells as text. 2. In the first cell, press the minus sign. 3. Press [ENTER]. The cell now contains a minus and the focus moved to the cell below it. * If instead of moving down, I want to move up, then step 3 would be to press [SHIFT]+[ENTER]. * If instead of moving down, I want to move right, then step 3 would be to press [TAB]. * If instead of moving down, I want to move left, then step 3 would be to press [SHIFT]+[TAB]. * Instead of the minus sign, the same goes for the plus sign. The only possible inconvenience here would be if the cells are not adjacent and I want to go directly from one to the other without using [ENTER] or [TAB]. But even in that case, I could just copy+paste. So, for adjacent cells, the procedure is not complicated. Only for non-adjacent cells there is some minimal extra work, or copy-paste can be used. I am not seeing the use-case that is not overcome by [ENTER], [TAB] and [SHIFT] keys instead of using the arrow keys. Perhaps these keys are not as comfortable or as close to a numeric pad as the arrow keys. Is that it? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
