Formulas
How to use the formula editor
The Formula editor is a powerful Spreadsheet feature allowing to perform computations and to have dynamic and up to date contents in cells.
Formula-enabled cells are those cells which content starts with the special character =.
Floating formula editor
When editing a formula cell (by double clicking on it or pressing F2 or = keys) a floating editor appears and provides edition means.
This floating editor is always visible and may be moved across the screen if needed. It remains opened even when another tab (or sheet) is active. This allows to easily compose complex formulas with cross-tab references. To close the floating editor, you can either
- press its validation button, which applies the current formula to the cell or
- press its cancel button which resets the cell's value and discards all changes.
Formulas composition and editing
A formula is an expression that involves:
- Values
- Cells references
- Operators
- Functions
An example of formula may be:
=SUM(A1, 5, 18, B2) + 42
When composing a formula, the floating editor offers some contextual help:
- It provides function documentation and suggestion (navigable with Up and Down arrow keys, or pressing Tab key)
- It automatically inserts cells references (even those on another sheet) by clicking on them
- It automatically resizes so that even long and complex formulas remain easily readable
When the floating editor suggests a list of functions, Up and Down keys may be used to navigate between available functions and Tab key inserts the function at the current caret position. Clicking on a suggested function with a mouse also inserts it at the current caret position.
