Har installert #gnumeric , men også #onlyoffice for å teste ut ulike alternativer.
Har også brukt #libreoffice og #openoffice.
Har ikke funnet noe som ikke gjør at jeg ikke kan bruke det ene eller det andre - jeg er ikke så avansert på hjemmebane på kontor applikasjoner. Trenger å kunne føre budsjett, skrive et brev, kanskje lage en presentasjon i ny og ne.
Det viktigste er at formatet er universalt og kan åpnes overalt. Resten blir subjektivt og hva man liker best.

In my experience, the #LibreOffice Calc "VALUEDATE" function can't parse most date text string formats that #Gnumeric, #Excel, Google Sheets (and even Apple's "Numbers" app, apparently) can handle.
I was quite surprised to not be able to find an existing bug report about this, so I filed one, and have to convince people that being able to parse different date formats is a nice thing for that parsing function to be able to do: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=170107

@RachelThornSub #LibreOffice #Calc is a very mature #spreadsheet software. The quality of the formulas is very good and was tested some time ago to be superior (in terms of accuracy) to #Excel, only #Gnumeric was better in that test. LibreOffice's formulas have been continuously tested, verified, and further improved since then.
Happy Anniversary!

dear #lazyweb: is there a game inventory system that works for #steam and #gog? I never remember what I have on which store.
also kind of interested in a #retrogaming inventoru option beyond a #gnumeric spreadsheet. something to track my carts/discs.
I guess also maybe something like a self hosted backloggery alternative but that's way more detailed than I was thinking.
Whenever I see people talking about LIbreOffice, I think back to the early days of GNOME of AbiWord and Gnumeric.
While they didn't have all the bells and whistles of LibreOffice, they were a delight to use- fast, easy, and I'd say they were fun too.
Yes, StarOffice was functional and powerful, it was never really *fun*. While I'm glad it was freed and made into OpenOffice, then LibreOffice, I wish the simpler tools had persisted.
#LibreOffice #GNOME #OpenOffice #StarOffice #AbiWord #Gnumeric
#Gnumeric 1.12.59 "TBD" has been released (#GNOME / #GOffice) http://gnumeric.org/
Anyone know stuff about how #Gnumeric represents decimal numbers and whether that has changed between Gnumeric versions?
Simplified example:
I have a .gnumeric file made with Gnumeric 1.12.35 (packaged by #Ubuntu, released 2017). It contains only the number 4.99 in cell A1. If I export it to CSV, I get a CSV file with 4.99.
I copy that file over to another computer and open it with Gnumeric 1.12.55 (packaged by #Debian, released 2023). In cell A1 I see the value 4.9900000000000002 (I didn't count the exact number of zeros). When I export it to CSV, I get that ...0002 as well.
When I create a file with 4.99 with Gnumeric 1.12.55 (the newer one), it saves as 4.99, it exports to CSV as 4.99, and when opened with Gnumeric 1.12.35 it shows up as 4.99 as well.
Computers are the same architecture, the one with old Gnumeric is an i5-8259U and with the new Gnumeric is an i7-8850H. If that matters, the OS with the old Gnumeric is a frankeninstall that I recall started out as Xubuntu 14.04 and was updated in fits and bursts.
I know about floating point decimal representation and its inherent issues. But the file I created with Gnumeric 1.12.35 was fine for all this time (exporting to CSV as well) and I am wondering if there's a setting in Gnumeric somewhere I can set so that both versions read 4.99. (That's a simplified example - the real thing is a spreadsheet with ten thousand values, I could possibly round them all but I'd rather do it only as last resort.)
Sorry, #gnumeric, but I have to do this as long as you grab for taking all my Libreoffice files every time you update:
zypper rm gnumeric && zypper al gnumeric.
Not Nice.

@itsfoss Sadly we do not have any good lightweight app for word on Linux at all. I can use #gnumeric for spreadsheets and it's fine, but for word documents I'd rather use #atlantiswordprocessor via #wine than any existing linux-native software as they simply suck (yes, I'm looking at you #abiword !) :(
I know that #LibreOffice Calc is the bees' knees for *so* many good reasons, but there are times that the comparatively much simpler #Gnumeric is just so much more performant, particularly when working with large spreadsheets or pasting complex tabular data from the web.

Which office suite(s) do you use at least once a week? (in a typical week)
Please only answer the poll *if* you use #office software, such as #wordprocessor, #spreadsheet #presentation software, etc.

I guess #gnumeric is lighter, so it would be good for people that just need expenses in spreadsheets on an old computer for their organization.. But I had better luck adding data labels with #Calc.
But I really need to focus and do a script to put out simpler charts of lines, with better labels, with plot. At this sort of level, maybe just Racket's pict would be good. Each labeled column or row as a named pict would go well for sequenced appearances, arrows, annotations and quizes in slideshow.
