[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 49143] EDITING: LibreOffice Base pastes array into single cell
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49143 --- Comment #5 from fiod...@gmail.com --- (In reply to comment #3) How do you add the copied fields? When you will try this directly in a table you could only add content to one field of one row. Yes. That's the behavious I was requesting to change. You have to use the wizard to import more than one field and one row into a table. Try the following way: Copy the content you want to insert into a table. Click with the right button of the mouse in the table-folder of Base. The wizard appears. I have to select Paste and then it appears Choose the option Append Data. Table name is the name of the table, where you wish to add the data. ... and then follow the whole steps of the wizard. Does this steps solve your problem? Yes. It is a quite unobvious procedure, but it works indeed. It rather does insert the copied rows at the top of the table rather than appending them, but yet it solves the need. By the way, it would be nicer if the wizard would offer some more user friendly way to input a name of an existing table into the Table name box: a)It could fill the default value with the name of the table that was right-clicked by the user b) or it could offer a drop-down list with all existing table names plus a new table value, or c) or it could try a) and if not feasibe (e.g. called somehow else than right clicking a table folder) then show the dropdown list. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49143 --- Comment #6 from fiod...@gmail.com --- (In reply to comment #4) At best this is a request for enhancement, I agree, as I already said in the description. How do I file a request for enhancement? Is there another request-tracking system? If there is, then you can stop reading here. NOTABUG, this is how cut and paste work within the Table view of Base. The Table view/representation is not a Calc sheet, it doesn't know how to interpret carriage return / line feeds. Yes, that's it. And for the sake of an intuitive and productive user-friendly usage I want to ask for an enhanced behavior. but it probably is not trivial to achieve, I agree. And it is a good reason to delay the resolution, but not one to close the ticket. and more importantly, there are already other ways of importing your data into a table than direct copy and pasting of mulitple rows of data from a text field, as Robert has indicated. Again, the existence of other tricky ways to achieve it is very nice and I'm also very happy to know about them (don't doubt I'll use them), but is not a reason to close a request-ticket asking to implement a more straight-forward alternative. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

The Table view/representation is not a Calc sheet, it doesn't know how to interpret carriage return / line feeds. At best this is a request for enhancement, but it probably is not trivial to achieve, and more importantly, there are already other ways of importing your data into a table than direct copy and pasting of mulitple rows of data from a text field, as Robert has indicated. You can also copy that data into a Calc spreadsheet and from there dragndrop it onto the Table entry in your list of tables in the main ODB window. So, at least 2 ways to achieve what you want to do : NOTABUG. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
