<tip author="Jonathon Coombes" subject="Complex formula structure"
category="Calc">
When you are working with complex formula in Calc, you may want to use
the function autopilot on the function toolbar. This dialog offers a
second tab to show the structure of the formula. This will show you
graphically, where there may be problems.
