I can do this the next time I make an update. With formula in particular I'm expecting a period of maturation and conversation with core developers before it's considered for a merge. I'm doing a lot of cowboy coding at this stage. I'm wondering if you'd be okay if I started another thread about developing > examples of usage?

I'm working to make formula powerful enough that graphs can be made by combining SVG and formula code. Any input on that is welcome — I'm currently writing some complicated programs to test the programming capabilities and see what sort of walls I run into. Just wondering, has IFERROR been implemented yet? > What, I have to implement things before I document them? :) But seriously, that one's my bad. I think it's commented out in the implementation code. I'll look into fixing that next update. Because the complexity of what can be written in formula is rapidly increasing, I'm thinking about ways to improve the plugin's error reporting. Specifically, it's often used in places (attributes, SVG) where error text won't be visible... It's also useful to know when an error originates inside a certain function, LET value or transclusion...
