Document used in their comparison

This metabug is created after a chat with mmeeks in IRC.
it seems OnlyOffice has a website where the compare their xlsx compatibility with LibreOffice's one < https://www.onlyoffice.com/best-collabora-alternative.aspx >

I'll split the different problem we have right now with the document attached and will report it in different issues ( or check if they are already reported )
Comment 1 Julien Nabet 2019-10-25 09:12:13 UTC 
Are there so much bugs that we need to split Meta in sub metas?
Soon, there'll be more METAs than real bugs! Aren't Search feature and related sufficient for lots of cases?

well, metabugs are useful for tracking related issues. This was more a personal request, but I also share the need of having it for this particular case...

It is not being used by an aggressive competitor, though, so let's remove

I like this METABUG and thanks for the competitors who has been actively report bug indirectly. And what I see latest fresh release now has better interopability. Such a good work.

*I'm not ODF worshipper of course. :)

OnlyOffice's sample XLSX as of 2024-04-02

The spreadsheet was updated by OnlyOffice. In this version the pivot table is not recognised by LO.
Also, the gif is now actually a gif (it wasn't one in the previous version).

I don't understand why it looks like about half of the sample they show in the website's export is missing from the file.
Comment 7 m_a_riosv 2024-04-02 02:54:46 UTC 
Experimenting a bit with OnlyOffice sample, the data source is an Excel table, maybe this is not cached by LO.
Copying the data in a new range and modifying the data source for the PT, then it is imported in LO.
