Autocompletion with the 'tab' key
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:20:48 UTC
I hope this is the correct component, and I hope I won't be banned as what I am suggesting is coming from excel... When completing a calc form, I use very often the "autocompletion" tool (sort of) on excel: if a term already exists in the same column, then excel suggests it for me. If it's ok, then, when I press the 'tab' key, the term is displayed and I can go on with the following columns. Here, in OO, I can see the suggested term, but the 'tab' key does not work, I can press the 'return' key, but, then, the next line is displayed, and from its beginning (if I'm using the 'tab' key from the beginning of the line): I would like to go to the edition of the next cell on the right.
In Calc you can configure the behaviour of the way the ENTER key is handled in /tools/options/calc/general Resolving as 'worksforme'
Thanks, I just need to get use to this way :)
