44768 : Ease editing regression lines (trendlines)
- Description : The former "Insert Statistics" dialog and the tab "Statistics" of a data series allowed adding, modifying and deleting of trendlines, mean value lines and error bars. This was split up. Insertion of trendlines works via "Insert/Trendlines..." and "Insert Trendline..." in the context menu of a data series. Deletion works with the Delete key and "Cut". Insertion of mean value lines works analogously via "Insert/Mean Value Lines" and "Insert Mean Value Line" in the context menu. Insertion of Error Bars still works via a tab-page of the data series. The former "Statistics" tab is replaced by a "Y Error Bars" tab that only contains the controls for error bars.

85794 : Reimplement file locking using an additional file
- Description : The system file locking has some problems in heterogeneous networks preventing it sometimes from functioning as expected. As a workaround the locking for the documents opened using ¨file:¨ protocol is implemented based on an additional lockfile for the OOo6.0 and Oasis documents, all other formats are not locked any more. The lock file name has syntax ¨.~lock.<original file name>#¨. The solution is implemented on document level, no UCB functionality should be affected. Although UCB and SAL were adjusted to allow opening of files without locking.

83676 : spadmin: add UI for no gui command line
- Description : Printer administration for OpenOffice.org is done with normal system tools. The problem here is that on traditional Unix flavors the printer administration is far too primitive for OOo's purposes. Therefore an own printer administration program has been devised that allows to use advanced printer features like duplex, paper formats, font substitution and the like.

Component : Spreadsheet (sc)

4904 : ODFF: Dynamic ranges of named cells, OpCode ocRange
- Description : Takes two references and computes the range, that is, a reference to the smallest 3-dimensional cube of cells that include both Left and Right. Note that Left and Right need not be a single cell. For an expression such as B4:B5:C5 the resulting range is B4:C5. In case Left and/or Right involve a reference list (result of operator reference union), the range is computed and extended for each element of the list(s). For example, (a,b,c,d denoting one reference each) (a~b):(c~d) computes a:b:c:d determining the outermost front-upper-left and rear-lower-right corners. Note that Left and Right may also be defined names or the result of a function returning a reference, such as INDIRECT. Description taken from the ODFF specification draft available at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=office-formula

8808 : Need a solver
- Description : OpenOffice.org lacks of a solver implementation. A solver allows to solve equations with multiple unknown variables. The following specification defines the user interface and interaction to implement a solver for OOo Calc. The UI design is capable to cover more than one solver engine. Solver engines could be installed as an extension provided by any OOo vendor using the newly introduced solver interface.

8811 : Allow multiple users to edit the same spreadsheet through workbook sharing
- Description : In a global world, collaboration becomes even more important. The collaboration feature for OOo allows to share and work simultaneously on a single spreadsheet. Furthermore it allows to share documents in any system environment and prevents documents from being overwritten by others (i.e. if the used file system does not support a reliable file locking).

31612 : Column limitation in SpreadSheet
- Description : In OOo 3.0 there will be 1024 columns per sheet instead of 256. The "used area" logic for automatic print ranges, HTML/RTF export, and the Ctrl-End keyboard shortcut has changed: If there are at least 30 equal-formatted columns somewhere behind the last column that has cell contents, the attributes in these and the following columns are ignored in determining the used area. This ensures proper handling of old files with cell attributes in 256 columns. In the file format specification, more columns were always possible. If OOo 2.4 loads a file with cell content beyond the 256th column, a warning is shown (after the integration of fwk83, with the fix for issue 85334).

32340 : ODFF: EmptyCell return for functions, like LOOKUP()
- Description : Previously, empty cells were forced to numeric 0 in some contexts and to empty string in others, except in direct comparison where =A1=0 and =A1="" both resulted in TRUE if A1 was empty. Emptiness now is inherited until used, so both =VLOOKUP(...)=0 and =VLOOKUP(...)="" give TRUE if the lookup resulted in an empty cell being returned. A simple reference to an empty cell is still displayed as numeric 0 but is not necessarily of type numeric anymore, so also comparisons with the referencing cell work as expected. For example: A1: 1 B1:

32341 : ODFF: OpCode 'ocUnion' to pass multiple ranges as one parameter
- Description : Semantics: Takes two references and computes the "cell union", which is simply a concatenation of the reference Left followed by the reference Right. This is not the same as a union in set theory; duplicate references to cells are not removed. The resulting reference will have the number of areas, as reported by AREAS, as AREAS(Left)+AREAS(Right). If Left or Right are not references, an error is returned. ...

33851 : Behavior with cut/copy/paste/fill cells and autofilter
- Description : Implemented a strategy to not let the user accidentally overwrite content of filtered rows by treating a filtered selection similar to a multi-selection of unfiltered rows, which disables operations not possible on a multi-selection, like cut, fill, merge. Exceptions respectively special treatment are: ...

38759 : ODFF: MIN/MINA MAX/MAXA should return 0 if all parms are empty
- Description : For MS-Excel interoperability the functions MIN() and MAX() now return 0 if no numeric value and no error was encountered in the cell range(s) passed as cell reference(s), note that text cells are ignored by MIN/MAX. The functions MINA() and MAXA() return 0 if no value (numeric or text) and no error was encountered. The functions previously returned an error in these cases. Passing a literal string argument to MIN() or MAX(), e.g. MIN("string"), still results in an error.

74245 : ODFF: LOOKUP in columns if range is wider than tall
- Description : The LOOKUP() spreadsheet function's lookup direction now depends on the width of the search array (first parameter, Searched) given. There are two major uses for this function; the 3-parameter version (vector) and the 2-parameter version (non-vector array).

When given two parameters, Searched is first examined: …

77280 : ODFF: ISERROR(undefinedname) results in #NAME! error, should be TRUE instead.
- Description : Earlier versions set an unconditional error at the formula cell if the formula contained an error and the formula was not interpreted in this case. This changed now for undefined names and operators and the formula is still interpreted, an expression like =ISERROR(undefinedname) gives the result TRUE. 'undefinedname' may also be a function or macro name, so =ISERROR(undefinedname(A1)) results in TRUE as well.

85000 : ODFF: SUMIF's 3rd parameter is handled differently from Excel
- Description : For interoperability with other spreadsheet applications the handling of the 3rd parameter to the SUMIF() function changed. Previously, Calc expected the geometry of that cell range to match that of the 1st parameter. Now the 3rd parameter's range geometry does not have to match the 1st parameter's; the upper left cell address is taken and the geometry of the 1st parameter is used to turn that into a cell range. For example, =SUMIF(A1:C3;1;X1) will result in the range X1:Z3 to be summed. If a range is passed, the geometry of the range is ignored. If the resulting range would extend over the lower/right sheet boundaries, those cells are silently ignored. For example, with a lower right boundary of IV65536 the formula =SUMIF(A1:C3;1;IU65535) would result in only 4 cells IU65535:IV65536 to be summed.
