[User Docs][Calc] Question on fill series Command
Greetings all;
When reviewing the Chapter on Calc or the Getting Started Guide I tried
a operation that appears should have worked but didn't. I tried
selecting all sheets and then doing a fill series to start from 1 and
end at 7 with an increment of 1. This should have put the series in the
same cells on all sheets and did not. It only put it on sheet 1 which is
where I was working. Doing a ill series and specifying it as text worked
fine.
As I do not have a version older than 3.4.1 on my system; my question is
if this ever worked or is it indeed not supposed to? If it is not I will
put a note to that effect in the Chapter. I it is supposed to I will
file a bug.
Regards
Keith

Johnny;
The only reason that I even thought to try it was because the section o
the manual for describing how to Add to more than one sheet happened to
come right after the section on using fill Series. Figured I could kill
two birds with one stoneand check two series o commands in one step. I
suspect it has been that way since for a while and nobody has screamed
to loudly. Thanks for the confirmation that it appears to be an OS thing.
Regards
Keith

exactly the same with my xp installation, hence that seems typical for that os. the apis have probably changed without a notice, which is a usual practice for ms. however, the issue doesn't look too evil.

Hi Martin;
That is interesting. I am using AOO 3.4.1 on windows XP. It could be
something with my system. It is getting a little long in the tooth, but
I can't really afford to upgrade to a new machine right now. Besides, I
LIKE my little Toshiba Tablet PC. :o)
On my XP system all tabs turn white when they are selected instead of
the darker colour of the active tag.
Thank you for the information. For know I will leave it as is.
Regards
Keith

Hi Keith,
It works on my system Windows 7 AOO 3.4.1
The only issue I see is that it isn't visible
which sheets are selected, which of course can
(mis)lead the user.
