[Issue 106500] allow to show nonprinting characters like in writer also in calc

Does anyone know why this is marked as won't fix? There is no reason or
decision noted.

All the Best

Yea, it is useful for data cleansing. So question is, do we scope this in?

I am not sure, if it is not more something that "belongs" to base.
However I also think base and calc are relatives.

For me both are more or less the same, but I am sure most would not agree.


All the best

I've reopened the issue. But please note that this doesn't mean that 
there it is fast solution to gett this integrated this also into Calc - 
or other modules.

We do get occasional problems on the EN forum where a stray trailing non 
printing character causes unexpected problems with some formulae. I 
don't know how much of an issue it would be to add this, but if it is 
comparatively simple I'd support it; as I suspect would a few others who 
spend time on the forum.

Cheers -- David Robley There are some that are wise. And there are 
others that are otherwise.

Edwin just said that it's not useful for him. He was sometimes very 
strict when judging BZ issues.

But I also cannot see a good use case for seeing non-pritable characters 
in cells.
