GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 153527
Series 1 - 80000 causes crash
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Select cell A1 Edit->Fill->Series... Enter start 1, step 1, end 80000 Gnumeric crashes, but sometimes Gnome catches it on the way out and offers to restart/submit bug. "Inform developer" doesn't know how to submit a bug, but that could be a Debian integration problem. Doesn't seem to occur if you have the whole sheet selected. This was the first thing I tried, incidentally, as I was curious to see if gnumeric had the same 64k row limit as Excel.
It doesn't actually crash anymore --> lowering severity. Two issues: 1. It prints loads of ** (gnumeric:19935): CRITICAL **: sheet_col_get: assertion `pos < SHEET_MAX_COLS' failed 2. It fills horizontally which wasn't what you expected. (You should probably just select the entire A column by clicking on the header.)
Re: 2 Selecting the entire A column will not help. In that case only the first cell would be filled. You need to select `series in column". By default it is `series in row'.
#1 is fixed in cvs head.
