Calc autocomplete inconsistent with Writer
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:55:29 UTC
when autocomplete suggests sth. ENTER leads to leaving the cell. In Writre, the suggestion is accepted; thius should be consistent: DEL dismisses the suggestion, ENTER accepts it, DEL+ENTER (sequentially) goes to next cell. How do you currently accept autocomplete in Calc?
Hi Niklas, one for you. Found no way to add some characters. Test in A1 and typed te in a3 results in a black test but no way to add another character or more to make it a tester. Frank
It's supposed to be that way. Cell AutoInput doesn't suggest words, it's the whole cell content. So it's only natural to accept the cell input when pressing "Enter". If you want to add something to the text, you can press "End" if in edit mode, of press "F2" to get into edit mode if you're in input mode.
closing.
