Bug ID: 145500
Summary: Add the ability to select a single column or row at
its header bar and request INSERT X
preceding/following rows
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.2.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: that.man.co...@gmail.com
Description:
When selecting a large number of columns or rows by mouse "dragging", the
moment all populated cells are off the monitor the scrolling speed rapidly
accelerates.
If the intention is to add say 372 rows/columns then generally, the display
overshoots the target location and it's just as tedious trying to reverse the
selection.
It would be far more productive if the facility existed to simply select one
header location and have the option to insert 372 rows/columns from this
location.
I have been apprised of the various alternatives which are quite clumsy
compared with the simple procedure - please insert x rows here,
See AskLibre "How to insert a variable number of columns or rows"
Motivation:
Libre Calc Charts define absolute addresses for the data range.
If that range "grows" by simply "dragging" the formulae for a few more rows
then the chart reference gets left behind - way behind if a couple of hundred
new rows become populated.
If the range is originally defined with two "overflow" rows then extended by
inserting more rows into the "overflow" margin then the chart range is
automatically adjusted to reflect the new end points.
