Description bugquestcontri 2013-12-13 03:09:21 UTC
Problem description: 

Whenever the "Format cells/ Alignment / Wrap text automatically" is checked it is necessary to check additionally "Hyphenation active". 
From my point of usage hyphenation is always used when I use Wrap text. Thus, I propose to have hyphenation being activated by default when "Wrap text automatically" is checked.

A smaller change (hopefully) but increase in productivity.
Operating System: All
Version: 4.0.6.2 release

@yjw9012 - I envy you for being able to do such work and hope that, in few years time, I can sit down and learn how to source code writing for LibO!

In order to limit the confusion between ProposedEasyHack and EasyHack and to make queries much easier we are changing ProposedEasyHack to NeedsDevEval.

Thank you and apologies for the noise

May I ask in which version this feature will be implemented?

We don't give estimates - bugs are fixed when someone volunteers to fix them. Could be tomorrow, could be next year. Sorry

Hi bugquestcontrol -

I finally had some time to look into this a bit more and it's indeed not doable. Apologies but for technical reasons it's just not a good idea as it affects default cell styles and it would create a lot of problems potentially changing the default to enabled.

Sometimes the simplest things on the surface become much more complex as you dig deeper. Apologies!

Hi Joel,

It is a pity but I can accept the technical reasons to mentioned. 

In the meantime I formated my default spreadsheet with both check marks set. Seems to work pretty well like this and - when needed - I only need to take out one check mark.
