This is really a useful needed addition to be very useful to people in electronics-related disciplines. If it needs to be handled at ODF level then please take it to that level on behalf of us users. The currently available DEC2BIN, DEC2HEX aren't *that* useful for this requirement because you can't do arithmetic operations on those, even simple addition/subtraction, or fill series operations by dragging bottom right handle of selection etc. To be able to do such addition etc you have to have a separate row/column/table of the decimal numbers with the operations and a parallel row/column/table running the DEC2x functions to get the desired display. This is inelegant as it causes cluttering of the data and makes things more difficult overall. If Excel doesn't have this yet then ODF/LibO can be the first on scene! BTW I also agree that LibO should not by itself prepend any 0x or 0b etc and if the user wants, they can add it as mentioned in <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=45952#c6">comment #6</a>. I hope this gets added soon!</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
