KOffice Libraries

  • Fix handling of guides
  • Render paragraph borders so that they span between the margins of the paragraph, rather than spanning the entire frame.

KSpread

  • Fix bug #126350 -- date loss when saving OpenDocument
  • Speed up loading documents when debug is compiled in
  • Initilize the scrollbars on sheet changes correctly
  • Fix loading/saving of cursor positions
  • Painting engine: Fix painting of cell grid. On scrolling the grid was sometimes not painted for one row. It is necessary to dilate all (!) regions by one column/row - particularly the rect of visible cells, which is used on scrolling.
  • painting engine: Border painting No need to check wether the adjacent cell is also marked dirty. For cells not at the sheet border we take always the pen which is more 'worth'. This avoids a linear search in the paint dirty list. And speeds up the painting.
  • Fix 'bug #125828: Integer-valued cells unaffected by "Increase/decrease the decimal precision shown onscreen"'
  • Fix strange selection behaviour while using the autosum function
  • Fix mutli sheel selections for formulas. (bug #125941)

  • Fix bug #125418: Resizing textarea resizes wrong textarea.
