Calc List Box dialog: Source cell range could accept Named Ranges
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:35:48 UTC
Calc 'Properties: List Box' dialogs only accept standard column-row nomenclature (ie, A1:A4) when specifying a 'Source cell range'. It would be a very useful enhancement for users to be able to specify Named Ranges in this field (and perhaps others). Obvious advantages would be the same as those attached to using Named Ranges in the spreadsheet cells; eg, user-defined names have familiar meaning in context. In addition, changing range specifications would then need only be done in one place - the Named Range. At the moment, users have to go to every list box and make individual changes manually.
Hi Bettina, a very usefull suggestion I think. Frank
