Here is another simple feature that may come in handy.
With the change I just checked into ooo-build master, you can now insert current date and time with just one key stroke. By default, Ctrl+; (semicolon) is bound to current date, while Ctrl+Shift+; is bound to current time. But these key bindings are configurable in case you don’t like these default bindings.
Once again, a very relevant improvement from ux point of view.
Thanks (and let’s pray that it gets upstreamed quickly ;-) )
At what point will this change be incorporated in an OO release? It is a very handy feature that I use in Excel daily.
Jack, I’d recommend giving the Go-OO version a try which already has this feature incorporated. You can download the go-oo version from here http://go-oo.org/download . Kohei
Thank you – I’ll do so at once!
Many thanks for this patch! Works great! I hope users will see your post, as there seem to be quite a few OO users who desire it.
