OpalCalc 1.43
kunkel321:
Feature idea:
The newer Excel versions have this auto-completion popup gizmo
Would it be feasible to have this in OpalCalc?
As always, DON'T add it if there is going to be a huge performance cost--speed is more important.
If you do add this, please consider allowing me to choose what types of functions are offered preferred in the list. I use unit and currency conversions a lot, but never use the fancy trig and calculus operations, so I don't really want to see them at the top of the list. Also, if I have a certain type of unit already defined, the list should not show items that would result in an error. (e.g. if I type "2 USD as C" then the list would have "CAD" as an item, but it would not have "Cubits.")
Another idea for a feature: Have it so that if I have any currency abbreviations typed in, a button appears on the toolbar that says [update currency db] that I can click to update it.
Question/request/possible bug:
Would like to copy this
And paste it as text. Either like this
1+1+1 | 3
or maybe like this
[1+1+1][3]
Currently if I use the "Copy answer to clipboard" function, it only copies "1+1+1."

Right, the dropdown menu / auto-completion will have to wait as that would be tricky to implement. Agreed about the speed thing.
As for currencies updating, well they automatically do once the answer is shown. Maybe I misunderstood?

Aha, that was implemented for 1.50. Try pressing Ctrl+Alt+C (with no text selected). That should the sum and the answer to make 1+1+1 = 3.
Also FYI, Ctrl+C copies the whole sum, and Alt+C copies the answer (again if nothing is selected).

Oh that's even better! I was assuming that the conversion rates for the different currencies could only be updated via the Options "Update Now" command.

Excellent! Yes, it does work as described--very nice!
Do be sure to update the GUI elements in OC

Yes, I suppose I should, despite the apx 10 millisecond extra boot time (sigh ;) )
EDIT: Oh yes, and they're mistaken as well. That's sorta a bug. Find another like it to get $5 more ;)
