Component : Spreadsheet (sc)




  • 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).
