Hello,
We (IBM) has done an improvement for Cell Range Picker of the Validity
modal dialog, and would like to contribute the code back.
Currently, in OO3.1, if a user selects "Cell Range" in "Allow" list of the
Validity dialog, (s)he has to input the range manually, unlike other
modeless dialogs having cell range picker function, which have a shrink
button to switch to range picker mode, or can directly select a range from
the editing area, such as "Consolidate" dialog and so on.
We enabled a shrink button besides the range source list-box of the
Validity dialog so that users can click it to switch to range picker mode.
And when focus is in the range source list-box, the Validity dialog will
switch from modal to modeless so that users can directly select a range. If
focus is moved out from the list-box, the dialog will switch back to modal
again.
If we would like to contribute the code, any advise would be appreciated.

Best regards,
Clarence Guo (Yan Peng)
