There
are also buttons for cut, copy, paste, and cell color and text color buttons.
I wish the buttons were configurable, however. The Workbook
Details button (to the right of Done)
isn't something I need to use often, so I would rather be able to change
it to Format. That way I don't have
to use Cell | Format to change formatting.
I also don't think that Delete Workbook (second
icon from left) should be so easy to get to.
Speaking of formatting text, there is a host of options for cell formatting. In addition to allowing multiple fonts (when will a DOC editor do this?) and colors, you can also change the text alignment (horizontal, vertical, wrap). You can format numbers as general, number, currency, percent, date, or time; border and cell protection are also options. The only thing missing is a format painter. I constantly use that in Microsoft Excel, and it would be nice to be able to copy one cell's formatting to another.
There
are a few features that I wish TinySheet
had.
A full screen mode with smaller row & column headings only would be
nice. If TinySheet
used the command-stroke toolbar in Palm OS 3.5 and had its major icons
there, I would probably use a full-screen mode exclusively.
Technical
Support for TinySheet
is very responsive. I found a bug in the SUM function if TinySheet
was adding empty cells, and iambic support had a corrected version done
within the day.
Towards the bottom right corner of the screen
is a (+-x/) button for turning on/off auto-calculate. If your spreadsheet
has a lot of data or formulas, it's a good idea to disable auto-calculating
until you have all of your data entered. Otherwise TinySheet
will recalculate every time you enter new data, slowing things down.
Also, larger documents can take a long time to load Once they're
loaded, though, maneuvering in TinySheet
is fine.
