Description lars 2002-07-22 19:04:54 UTC
so that one sees which cells will be printed and not printed.

- implement an icon which allows the user to set the print/not print attribute.

- implement an icon which makes "organisation" "markings" appear/disapperar 
(like the ¶ in writer).

Try View|Pagebreak preview. A nice preview of which areas are printed
out (and you can still edit the sheet).

The toolbars are for the most used functions (and they are already
crowded), and I don't think that defining print ranges will be
included there.
Nevertheless you can add this function by yourself: Edit the toolbars
(Tools|Configure|Toolbars or right click on toolbar) and add the
printrange functions from Format category. Then you may attach an
existing or new icon to them.

Yes, that's missing.

i take it
Comment 3 frank 2002-07-23 08:59:16 UTC
Hi Lars,

as Daniel explained, such an feature is available. Your second point
seems to be not really usefull for Calc. IMHO it's not necessary, but
I sent it to the feature guys.

You are referring to the "positive" fct.;  I am referring to the 
negative function :  "cell properties, cell protection, do not print 
these cells" (translated from german).
I liked to have an icon for that (optionally - I don't find it in the 
toolbar edit dialogue).

Pagebreak could have been a good idea, but "leider" (<-german) cells 
marked to be not printed like described above do still show up.
  [Also: as whenever restarting calc the zoom mode resets back to 
         ~50% -- either it should be saved (or be 100% standardly - 
         makes sense as it is for immediate comparison, isn't it?) 
         when changed once permanently(^="application dependant") or 
         see issue 6352]

Perhaps only using the positive fct. and "ignoring" the attribute for 
the negative fct. is a defect?


P.s.: "Markings" such as the "not to be printed" mark is 
      a "organisation mark"; but this idea is really P6-7.
Comment 5 lars 2002-08-20 18:07:36 UTC
pagebreak preview is nice,

the icon for the mentioned function ist the main request then

why? it's a function! every function must receive an icon to call it 
from (icon=the possibility to place the function-caller on a toolbar!)


regarding "organisation markings", see issue 7047 for that, where 
such things can be considered when working on the 
suggested "redesign" (issue 6741).

Hi Lars,

please don't change any flags especially the owner after submitting 
an issue. Any subcategory has its responsible engineers which have 
the knowledge of the responsible developers. So if you change flags 
by yourself, you will slow down the processing.

This issue is not on our roadmap to 2.0.
Furthermore even Excel does not have such icons.

I don't think that "even Excel does not have such ..." is a good 
reason. Beside this is not a hard-to-imlplement feature.
Comment 10 lars 2003-09-18 11:52:58 UTC
I reopen: it IS useful

- icon for toggling "hidden cells" (from Format Cells->Cell 
Protection)

- highlighting such cells to identify them more easily (optionally, 
but as option via icon please)
Comment 11 falko.tesch 2003-09-26 11:57:29 UTC
We will have an icon for Page Preview in 2.0 and we will have 4 icons
for print range definition.
