Introduction
This page will discuss the user interface for the AutoInput feature in Calc and Writer (also known as auto-completion.)
Status: Work in progress.
How it works
In Calc
In Writer
Issues
Issues with discoverability
- The name of the feature do not seems to match the name the user use to talk about the feature (auto-completion).
- In Calc, the option is located in Tools > Cell content > AutoInput. This is illogical since the feature does not deal with cell content, but about the method used to input that content. See Issue 40908 .
- In Calc: AutoInput prevents the use of the Tab key to change cell. See Issue 18748 and Issue 7566 .
Issues with capitalization
- In Calc: when the word is written in extenso, AutoInput has no other effect than changing capitalization. See Issue 73036 and Issue 5743 .
Inconsistency between Calc and Writer
- Issue 8453 .
- In Writer, AutoInput is a tab in Tools > AutoCorrect… but in Calc it is an entry in Tools > Cell Content. See Issue 75413 and Issue 80191 .
