Working with rows/columns is a core Calc feature and a need may arise during regular user's work, regardless how often it will be used. I think it's much better to have it confirmed with Lowest Enh and info on extension than to close and for sake tell: no need for this in Calc. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The extension is also available in: https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/5747 I just need to update it to the latest version in LO extension website. (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #8) > I don't see this as a frequent use case. It is hard to assess how frequent this use case is. All I can say is that I use it very often. The 3 main use cases for me are: 1) Copying and pasting data from web pages often result in empty lines depending on how the original web page was organized; so removing these empty rows in a quick manner is very helpful 2) Sometimes working with long data tables I need to manually remove some lines. It is easier to simple remove their contents first (using Delete key) than using the Remove Row command (which shows a dialog, requiring more clicks). After removing all the rows, I simply compact the data table. 3) In lectures, I often use Calc to illustrate how a certain algorithm processes a matrix of data, which involves deleting rows one at a time. So what I do is simply delete the cell contents (using the Delete key) and at the end of the iteration I compact the data using this extension. I understand that these uses cases may be a little "niche", which is why I developed it as an extension. But if some day a dev wishes to implement this functionality into LO natively, I would be very pleased =) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

If you want to get rid of data you can remove a col/row with content. And isn't the compact function (removing all empty col or row) dangerous since you may have references that most often but not always needs adjustment. Nothing to say against an extension, however. And improving it as well as having it on our extension site is a big plus. Other opinions? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The use case reported by the OP is somewhat common. Often times we have a table in Calc and then we need to delete some rows, but only their contents (not the actual row). After deleting many rows, the user needs to compact the table by removing the empty rows. Another use case is when you copy and paste tables from HTML pages into Calc, which sometimes results in some rows being empty and the user needs to compact the data. The use cases described above led me to develop the Remove Blanks extension. I would be willing to try to integrate this extension into LO. Maybe we could hear from the UX team if this is worth the effort. Let's keep this as UNCONFIRMED and add the UX team in the loop. There's also a meta bug 145878 about implementing features as extensions.
