Bug ID: 158399
Summary: Insert multiple columns at once
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
It would be good to be able to insert several non-contiguous columns at once.
It is currently not possible, what is the specific reason for this?
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a spreadsheet with columns A, B, C, D. Populate a few rows of each of
those columns (see attachment).
2. Objective: insert blank columns in B and D, in one step.
3. Select columns B and C
4. Go to Sheet -> Insert Columns
Actual Results:
The options are greyed out; It is not possible to insert columns when more than
one column is selected.
Expected Results:
Blank columns are inserted at B and C, therefore now I have columns A, B, C, D,
E, F, where B and D are empty.
I am not sure why this option is not available... I guess it might be related
to potential problems on how to approach this (i.e. if a column changes its
location because another one was inserted before, then how to deal with the
next insertion?). I suppose a sensible way would be to do it sequentially (eg.
starting from left to right).
Reproducible: Always
