New Report Designer	i76758		At the moment OpenOffice.org Base supports only very limited report functionality. This document describes the user interface to design a report by hand. This allows the user to design a report with any level of complexity e.g. grouped records, sorting of records, different alignment of text fields, and calculations.	Marc Neumann (msc)	speclink	dba
New option: Load printer settings with the document	i76855	Load Printer Settings with the Document Option	OOo stores and restores printer settings with a document by default. In an enterprise environment with always available printers (i.e. around the world) this could result in printing a document on the other side of the world. Therefore a new option is added to suppress loading document printer settings on loading a document.	Frank Loehmann (FL)	speclink	framework
Editing of path animations is possible again	i41800	Custom Animation User Interface	The user interface for custom animation now also supports adding user drawn motion path effects and the feature to edit the path of existing motion path effects.	Christian Lippka	speclink	presentation
Default print options in Calc	i25278		feature-info: The default values for the following print options in Calc have been changed: - Print only selected sheets (property AllSheets) - Suppress output of empty pages (property EmptyPages) By default those options are now enabled. In addition, if the 'Print only selected sheets' option is enabled, the Calc page preview prints only the displayed sheet. Furthermore a warning box with the message 'There is nothing to print. The selected print range or sheet is empty.' is shown, if nothing is printed, e.g. if the document, selected sheet or print range is empty.	thomas.benisch@sun.com		sc
Keyboard shortcut "Ctrl-1" is now "Format Cells"	i35738		feature-info: The shortcut "Ctrl-1" in Calc was changed from from "single line spacing" (in drawing objects only) to "cell format dialog".	niklas.nebel@sun.com		sc
Keyboard shortcuts Ctrl-Plus and Ctrl-Minus for Insert/Delete Cells	i38108		feature-info: Ctrl-Plus is now "Insert Cells". Ctrl-Minus is now "Delete Cells".

Division by zero #DIV/0! error displayed for certain functions, #NUM! displayed for illegal floating-point operation errors	i47644		feature-info: Introduced a new error code 532 to distinguish division by zero errors from the more general illegal floating-point operation with error code 503. A more user-friendly #DIV/0! instead of Err:532 is displayed. The illegal floating-point operation now displays #NUM! instead of Err:503. This should be reflected in the online help under "error codes;list of". The list of functions resulting in #DIV/0! includes, but may not be limited to: division operator / if the denominator is 0 VARP with less than 1 argument, e.g. only empty cells in a range STDEVP with less than 1 argument VAR with less than 2 arguments STDEV with less than 2 arguments AVERAGE of nothing AVERAGEA of nothing KURT of nothing ZTEST of only 1 point SUBTOTAL with functions average, stdev, stdevp, var, varp as above LOGNORMDIST with stdev=0 STANDARDIZE with stdev=0 NORMDIST with stdev=0 The #DIV/0! error is also exported to MS-Excel so that a recalculation doesn't flip from #NUM! to #DIV/0! anymore.	eike.rathke@sun.com		sc

Cell context menu entry changed	i47732		feature-info: The cell context menu entry "~Default" has been changed to "~Default Formatting". Now, the entry is equal to the corresponding context menu entry in a Writer document (see http://www.openoffice.org/issues/ show_bug.cgi?id=39939).	daniel.rentz@sun.com		sc
Renamed checkbox in Paste Special dialog	i50436		feature-info: In Calc's Edit -> Paste Special dialog, the checkbox "~Strings" has been renamed to "Te~xt".	daniel.rentz@sun.com		sc

Shortcut for Format->Cells menu entry changed	i55972		feature-info: The shortcut for the menu entry "Cells" in the "Format" menu has been changed from "~Cells" to "Ce~lls" to prevent clash with the globally defined entry "~Change Case".	daniel.rentz@sun.com		sc
Ctrl + ~ (Ctrl + `) toggles formula view	i56202		feature-info: Ctrl + ~ (Ctrl + `) now toggles formula view i.e. the cells display the (formula) result or the formula that the cells contain. This applies to all the cells in the table. The shortcut key can also be configured through the customize option. Ctrl + ~ is available for English keyboard layouts only. For non-English Keyboard layouts, the shortcut key has to be configured to a different key combination.	muthusuba@openoffice.org		sc
Dynamic ranges as formula results in validation lists	i56566		feature-info: Calc now supports dynamic ranges as formula results in validation lists, menu Data.Validity, pick "Cell range". Previously, only directly entered range references such as A1:A5 or defined names that simply (recursively) evaluated to a range were supported. Now also a formula that evaluates to a range or an array can be entered, such as INDIRECT(A1) if A1 contains a string that evaluates to a range, such as B2:C3. Defined names are deeply evaluated now and don't need to be defined to a simple range, a formula returning a range or an array here is fine as well. This makes it possible to define a name to a complex formula that calculates a rectangular area and enter that defined name in the validation dialog. The restriction that a range has to be exactly one column or one row was removed. If a two-dimensional area is given, the elements in the selection list are listed row-wise if not sorted. If the range or formula calculation results in an error, that error is displayed as the only value of the selection list box. The hint displayed below the Source edit field was adapted to "A valid source can only consist of a contiguous selection of rows and columns, or a formula that results in an area or array."	eike.rathke@sun.com		sc

'Old' mail merge dialog now supports output to single file	i76853	Rework Simple Mail Merge Print Dialog	The simple mail merge dialog is often used to print already present mail merge documents. The new mail merge wizard seems to be overloaded for those existing mail merge documents. The feature to save the mail merge in a single document is not implemented yet for this old dialog. This specification defines how this feature gets integrated into this dialog.	Frank Loehmann (FL)	speclink	word processing
Soft page break	i78650		The ODF 1.1 allows the export of soft page breaks.
