Public bug reported:
Hopefully the summary says it all but when a file is opened in LibreOffice Calc
as read-only it should still be editable and allow changing of values and
formula calculations to take place.
I have a few spreadsheets which are used as complex calculators and I don't
want the formulas to change but the input boxes need to except new values. The
files have to be marked read only as they are on a shared resource and won't
open at all if they are not and someone else has a copy open.
I think not being able to save the file should be sufficient.
Possibly this is a feature request rather than a bug as such but it will also
affect anyone coming from other spreadsheet products who are used to this
behaviour.
Thanks.
