--- Comment #10 from ady <adylo811...@gmail.com> --- (In reply to foubug from comment #9) > Doesn’t his commit state otherwise? > https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/4cfa840ecaa5a094a32a60a60b295858980109df No. Taking your example: A 1 Ox 2 Office In cell A3, type-in "O" (without quotation marks) and (with the newer bash-like auto-complete) you will find _no_ suggestion (yet). Now add one more letter, "Of" (without quotation marks), and you will get the first suggestion. IOW, to be able to get some auto-complete suggestion, the typed-in characters must offer some kind of uniqueness while they must match a prior entry in the same (data) column. If the already typed-in characters are equal to one unique (prior) value (in the column), then the full-cell content suggestion is offered to the user for auto-complete. Using "bash-like" methods, you could have part-cell content suggestions. As many users mentioned before, the new algorithm is not better. But since this report is closed now and the bash-like behavior has been implemented for several versions by now, there is no point on continuing adding comments here. If you need assistance with this behavior, or alternative methods for introducing (repeating) values/data, I would suggest first carefully reading the related reports (such as bug 142214 and others "see also" reports), and then you might want to open a new topic on <https://ask.libreoffice.org>. If all that is not enough, you might want to open a new enhancement request report. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
