I guess not, if I understand how it works. What is needed is:
1) an option to never ever brake the integrity of a line without a warning
2) if the user selects a range of lines/rows/cells, then applies any sorting
operation, the sorting must affect completely and exclusively the selected
area, no exceptions.
3) In the help file, a clear, complete and exhaustive documentation of Calc
behaviours in every case.
I have yet another simple case where I would need the option
[X] Update references when sorting range of cells
A B C
1 value1 value3
2 value2 value4
3 =B2 (value4)
If I modify sorting of rows 1 and 2 according to the column B values, I want
the C3 reference updated so that it always points to value4, no matter if it's
in B1 or B2. But I can't use the options because it's too dangerous. Without 1)
and 2) as I described here above, it's very likely that you will end up with
loosing your datasheet completely without even knowing, because of the messed
up lines.</pre>
