Description Reggie Chan 2006-08-07 04:37:38 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1. A1 = '1'
2. A2 = '=sum($A$1:A1)'
3. cut A2 and paste B2

Expected result:
B2 = '=sum($A$1:A1)'

Actual result:
B2 = '=sum(A$1:$A1)'

If it is pasted at A2, B2 changes to '=sum($A1:A$1)' instead.

This bug exists in both 1.6.3 and 1.7.

Sorry for typo, this case is for pasting at A3.

I can confirm this under Linux too.
Comment 3 Jody Goldberg 2006-10-17 02:28:37 UTC 
ahh, I see.

The inversion check was being done relative to the source position rather than the destination.  Which produced a false positive when comparing relative to absolute ref.

Patch is in 1.7.2
