Lars, thanks for taking the time to post this issue. Thank you for using and supporting OOo. I'm going to label this as an enhancement request. the jump is due to the current priniple of "display" of the sheet; and I like it. so if possible only scroll smoothly when a column is larger than the displayable area Hi Falko, 1 4 u For now we can show such columns in it's entirety by changing the zoom factor or just changing the column width by using the context menu on the column header. Frank In case columns are wider than the current screen Calc should scroll smoothly (horizontal) instead of "jumping" to the next column. This enables the user to read-out the current (wider-than-screnn) column's content. . *** Issue 39731 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** To satisfy both requests, in my opinion, smoothly scroll function should be
implemented and Calc should have UI to swtich scroll option easily, "smoothly"
or "jumping".

We may not, however, see small characters zoomed out forcibly and want to change
column width all of the time when we encounter such columns.
*** Issue 43413 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** I really hope that anyone implement it in ongoing release. I can't actually work with some documents. Thanks in advance! I really hope that anyone implement it in ongoing release. I can't actually work with some documents. Thanks in advance! When will be implemeted the smooth scroll of the columns? There is nothing to invent it enough copy what already does Excell. It since 2002 this issue is opened. This is driving me insane. I downloaded Open Office in hopes that it had a more intelligent interface than Excel, but the same awful "feature" of scrolling a row at a time was copied straight from Excel with no option to scroll normally. I don't care if the row is bigger than the screen or normal sized. I lose track of what I'm looking at when I scroll and everything jumps around erratically. Does this really take 7 years to fix? Issue can be bypassed by highlighting some letters or words and afterwards only starting to drag and drop without really moving them. Then it is possible to scroll each textrow and to normally modify and saving the text in the specific cell/row. I think The new option in preferences should be (combobox): scroll by: [pixels|cells|auto] * by pixels - scrolling as all non-table-oriented programs * by cells - as now * auto - scroll by pixels only for large cells (> 1/2 of window with for horizontal scrolling, > 1/2 of window height for vertical scrolling) why is this issue only marked as enhancement with a priority of 4? this "bug" renders viewing and editing some spreadsheets completely impossible! that is why this issue should be considered to be something much more serious. especially taken into account that it has been reported 7 years ago! the issue is reproducible on windows xp sp2/sp3 with ooo310m11 and dev300m52. (and now i will go back to work ... on a writer spreadsheet in a writer document with dimensions of 39x300 cm ...) I completely agree with you pfadwaechter. Could anybody from the dev.team give us news about the treatment of this issue? Hello, I'm using my netbook PC (Asus Eee 901) with screen resolution 1024x600. There is no need to have very height rows to face this problem. Thank you. Hello, I'm using my netbook PC (Asus Eee 901) with screen resolution 1024x600. There is no need to have very height rows to face this problem. Thank you. To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on my owner to the owner "requirements". This is currently causing me nothing but headaches, as I'm trying to use OOo Calc to track web app bugs and add screenshots from testing, this can make my rows quite large and trying to resize my screenshots is pretty much impossible. Please provide a smooth scrolling option. Even difficult to follow the normal documents with different column and row sizes because the jump scroll. Can you implement the smooth scroll option please? Thank you. Thumbs up for accepting this issue! :-) Accepted? - Great! - so this will be fixed in the next update? So when will this be fixed?! |
