Correct. About that conditional thing, I don't think it's possible,
since I already use it for other purposes (drawing lines to separate
groups of cells automatically). Well, it's probably possible, but I
would have to create a lot of styles to match every combination of
what I have now and visible/invisible contents, and I'm not sure three
different conditions will be enough. It seems more complicated than
using N() in any case, I think.
