Hi Guy,

Thank you for the provided suggestion. It looks like this is a possible approach for this specific case. I will add it as a note to our internal backlog item and when this item goes to implementation our development team will take it into account.

Hi

Am I mistaken in saying that implementing this feature is simply a matter of taking the cell reference and substituting "A:D" with "A1:D[row_count]", for example?

Thanks

Guy

Hello Guy,

The logic for creating cell references is internal and I am afraid that there is no option to modify it in a way so it can parse references to rows or columns. Furthermore, this is part of the core logic in the control and even modifying the source code should be done carefully to preserve the already existing functionalities. Adding support for references to rows or columns also means integrating that with the different features that would need to operate with such references.

Hi

Ok, thank you. Is there any workaround we can use to allow SpreadProcessing to support references like this?

Thanks,

Guy

Hi Guy,

The 'Approved' status means that we agree that a specific functionality would be a nice addition to the component and the task is included in our prioritization and planning processes. However, the feature is still not scheduled and I cannot say in which release it will be included.

This is crucial for supporting clients' existing spreadsheets. Is there any indication of when this will make it to a release?
