            Bug ID: 136119
           Summary: Spreadsheets shoud not have "infinite" numbers cells.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: nik at linna.com

I am coming to LibreOffice from having used Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers, and
Google Sheets. All of them give you a spreadsheet with a manageable number of
cells, and allow you to remove and add rows and columns to make the sheet the
exact size for the data you need.

LibreOffice presents a vast, boundless expanse of empty cells, with no way to
remove them. Scrolling to what appears to be the right end or bottom of the
document only reveals new empty cells. In fact, it's easy to accidentally
scroll past the edge of your known world of data and wind up in terra
incognita.

No other spreadsheet software I have worked with does this. Presentatiaon
matters as much as calculation power.  I would really appreciate if LibreOffice
Calc behaved in a similar reasonable manner, giving me only the cells I have
and want. I can always add more, but it seems I can never take them away.
