Tab character (Calc)
Versie door Jeroen Strompf (overleg | bijdragen) op 2 aug 2022 om 08:44
I've come across a strange problem (July 2022): I can't copy multiple rows that contains at least one tab character, and have that tab character preserved. It doesn't matter if I am copying within Calc, or to e.g., a text editor.
- When copying the content of a singular cell (just by selecting the cell, not going into the cell and selecting its content), tab characters do get preserved
- Tab characters are not displayed in cells - That's bearable.
I can't find much about this issue, and actually only one link (see below).
Solution for now: Use 4 spaces in stead of tab
- At the destination, I could convert those spaces back to tab, if needed
- Four spaces works as a separator when migrating data into different columns in Calc.
