Notices

Arcean, many thanks for your time. I have been doing more testings and Gnumeric does update the file date when the spreadsheet is modified. But the native file manager of Maemo 5 does not upgrade the file date until it is opened again. This was what induced me to think that it was the cause of my synchronization problem. The latter persists. When I run DropN900 to synchronize with DropBox, sometimes spreadsheets edited with Gnumeric are not synchronized, as if the file had not changed. This does not happen with text files, for example. But right now I do not know if the problem is in Gnumeric, in DropN900, or whatever. I will try to get more details, but for the moment I cannot trust the synchronizations. Thanks again for your quick response.

Just to answer your question. I have checked with spreadsheets in Gnumeric format and I have the same problem of synchronization.

I don't know how DropN900 works, but is the problem that the files are open in Gnumeric when you're trying to sync? Maybe DropN900 cannot sync files that are open in another app at the time.

I tried closing Gnumeric and I had the same problem. Maybe DropN900 requires a minimum amount of change. Usually I make small changes to the worksheets in the N900. For example, I have a worksheet with a list of scientific journals and I fill in the issues I have browsed. That means I add a few digits at a time. I have tried with bigger changes and this triggered the synchronization. I am afraid now that it is a problem of the minimum threshold that DropN900 requires to consider that the file has changed. But this would be a matter of the DropN900 forum. If so I thank again the developper and the people in this forum for the quick response and the inconveniences.

Gnumeric updated to 1.10.15-1
Changes:
- app updated to 1.10.15
- performance improvements
- fixed bug #6880 ("Mouse cursor shouldn't appear")

I've just uploaded Gnumeric 1.10.16-1. Major changes: ODF and XLSX export improvements + memory leaks fixes.

Thanks for your efforts! I was testing out gnumeric and happen to notice when going from Tools > Solver that some programs are missing. (glpsol and stuff for LP Solve.) Has that always been the case? Do I need to download them seperately. I couldn't find them in any of the usual repositories. Regardless, a nice job!

Ah, it's normal. Solver is not a part of Gnumeric since 1.10.0, if I remember correctly.

There's a new version in the Exras-devel repo (1.10.17) .

very disappointed with this gnumeric.
the objects (Button,slider.....) not working.
none of you want's that?
