Hi there,
I have been trying to use calc to organize some information. For
example, various pieces of information about one place I am applying
to for a job go in one row of the calc sheet. This means that
sometimes the amount of text in one column becomes kind of large, and
I was wondering if there is an effective way to manage it. Here are
some of my specific questions:
* Can I configure calc to show me, say, just two-three lines of the
text, and if I hover over the cell (or do something else) show me the
whole text?
* I can do this sort of by inserting a note with the cell, but there
are some issues:
* I need to use the mouse, which is what I would like to avoid.
* The note behaves in a strange way when some cells of the spread
sheet are frozen.
* I don't know how to change the default size of the note?
* The red dot in the right top corner is too small, and I might miss
some information some time.
* When I am editing the text in a cell, can I change the key binding
for <Enter>. Currently, it finishes the editing and moves to one cell
down. I would rather make a new line in the text of the same cell
(what <C-Enter> does).
* Is there a way to remove the functionality which changes *blah* to
blah in bold.
* And finally, is there a way I can edit the text of a calc cell in an
external editor, say vim. Of course I can copy and paste, modify and
paste it back, but I am looking more along the lines of firefox's
"It's All Text" plugin.
I have been looking into these questions for a long time. I will
appreciate any help in this regard. Thanks for reading so far.
Thanks,
Yogi
