Spreadsheet with constants replaced with #### (25.00 KB, application/vnd.ms-excel)

Description Lars Clausen 2005-11-08 14:37:41 UTC 
In a departamentally created spreadsheet, some fields that should contain simple
constant values turn up as ####.  When I edit the fields, the value is there,
and I can edit it, but it still turns up ####.  I suspect the formatting of the
field breaks something.

In attached sheet, it happens in F21, F30, F33-34, F36-38.

"####" is Gnumeric's (and Excel's, for that matter) way of saying that the
number is too wide to be shown in the cell.

In this case, that isn't really true.  We seem to have a bug related to the
fact that the sheet is zoomed.  The numbers are shown as expected if you reset
the zoom to 100%.
Comment 3 Lars Clausen 2005-11-08 15:43:01 UTC 
Probably has something to do with the use of "\ *" in the format.  Removing the
* made it work when zoomed as well, and it also works when printing.  Bug is not
quite so serious then, IMHO.
