Hi all,
The other day when playing with a calc document, I discovered an
annoying "feature". Create a new spreadsheet, protect one of the sheets
and try to modify the cell styles: nothing shows up when clicking on the
"Modify..." context menu.
I had to run a debug session in sc to understand that the problem was
caused by a protected sheet... which obviously normal users won't do. I
see here several usability problems:
1/ The "Modify..." context menu should be at leat unactivated
2/ You can still create new styles
3/ You can't even edit styles that aren't applied in the protected
sheet
4/ There is no visual feedback for the user to understand what happens
What's your take on this? Christoph, do you have any idea to improve
that thing?
Regards,
