Description Jérôme Guelfucci 2007-12-07 06:27:48 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
This was reported on Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnumeric/+bug/111480
by: https://bugs.launchpad.net/~pot

When specifying constraints for the Solve tool, one cannot set a literal value.

Steps to reproduce:
For example, if I want to constrain a cell to be less than 1, I have to write 1 in some cell and then make a reference to that cell in the Contraints dialog. It would be more natural if I was able to write a 1 rather than a reference to a cell containing 1.

Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
This was reported for gnumeric 1.7.13, I could not check with a newer version.
