Reasonably, I have been asked by the developers to gain support from a
wider body of users for a change in the user interface to Calc.
My request is *bug 68582
<https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68582>*
*
>>>>>>>>>>>>>*
When you right-click a sheet tab in Calc you get a menu:
Insert Sheet...
Rename Sheet...
Move/Copy Sheet...
Tab Colour...
etc
I would like this menu to be replaced by:
Insert Sheet...
Rename Sheet...
Move Sheet...
Copy Sheet...
Tab Colour...
etc
Currently when copying a sheet, you must remember to click the copy button on the
next menu to copy rather than move the sheet. I have just overwritten data I needed
by forgetting to click this button."
*>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
*The most important reason is that the default behaviour of the command
is to move the sheet, and this can destroy valuable data *without
warning*. If, as I have done, you forget to click the "copy" button, you
overwrite and destroy your existing sheet.
*
*A less important reason is that the interface is inconsistent: in other
menus and toolbars, the choice of move or copy is at the top level, not
hidden a level lower.**There are 12 commands in the menu: adding a
thirteenth would not make it over long.*
*Please may I have support for this request.*
