Recalc cell("filename")

users
#1

After performing "Save As ..." in Calc, a cell that contains CELL("filename") is not recalculated. Pressing F9 does not do anything to the cell either.

Any suggestions?

LO 4.1.3.2
Kubuntu 13.10

CTL+SHIFT+F9 does work. It would be nice if Save If … were sufficient

So, are you using Apache OpenOffice (AOO) or LibreOffice (LO)? I only ask because you posted to the LO group about a bug you reported in AOO.... Not that I have not done similar things given that I subscribe to both mailing lists.

I am using LO. I only mentioned the AOO bug because it was the same issue.

Hi :slight_smile:
It is good when 2 projects co-operate in this and other ways, as we
do. In many ways it's really 1 big community but there are various
artificial boundaries trying to split it into 2. At various points,
but most noticeably back when Oracle owned OpenOffice, there have been
fairly determined efforts to split the community into the 2 separate
projects. I get the impression that code developed for LibreOffice
then makes it's way into OpenOffice and just lately we seem to have
had a major contribution of code from IBM through Apache OpenOffice.
It seems that IBM couldn't just give us the code directly but
obviously wanted us to have it in the end. Apache worked hard to make
that possible and finally gave us the code ready for the 4.2.0. The
code solves a huge raft of accessibility issues.

Anyone who can test-drive 4.2.0 would be doing a great job for helping
smooth things out more quickly and for helping make it easier for
companies and organisations to migrate to LibreOffice, particularly if
you are able to test it with screen-readers and other accessibility
tools.

I think the code contribution removes dependence on Java in that
crucial area. Now it seems the only place java is needed is with
Base's current internal back-end. The devs are working at swapping
the existing internal back-end for something else so hopefully this
issue will eventually be resolved too.

Individuals such as James and Alex (and others who are keeping quiet
about it) who continue to work in both projects get my applause for
keeping lines-of-communication open. Articles in on-line magazines
and even in more mainstream press get all excited about the apparent
feud and competition between the projects. I wonder if they will jump
on this type of positive story too! :wink: People generally get more
excited about feuds and problems so that is what magazines sell/tell
