Subject: Re: [BUG] hline references on left side of table formula
Date: Mon, 2 Sep 2013 10:10:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <B289E5D0-5E33-419F-95F0-A3F182BE9A9F@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Rick,

hline-relative references on the left side of a table are currently not supported.  The fact that this is expanded is a bug.  A patch catching this case would be very welcome.

Regards

- Carsten
