Description Miguel 2010-12-15 02:10:27 UTC 
When a text content of cell is overflow than screen in vertical I don't scroll to show the hidden part of cell.

Comment 3 Miguel 2010-12-16 03:23:50 UTC 
I already upload example.

The cell have 45 lines but when you edit the cell you cannot edit the lines under of 41. Only method to show this lines is reduce zoom to 80% .

Bye, thanks.

I can't reproduce here with a fresh build of master... I could even add one more line at the bottom (and my zoom is 100%). Closing as INVALID, feel free to reopen if the bug appears again in later builds.

I think he is asking for a way to edit cell content when the cell hight exceeds the height of the visible area.

As a comparison, Excel allows you to expand the formula edit box at the top when the formula becomes too long.  I don't know if there is anything we can do for in-place editing, but at least supporting expandable formula edit box can solve this.

I'm re-opening this.  We have a request for this in the novell bugzilla too.

This is something Noel is working on.  I'm re-assigning this to him.
Comment 9 Noel Power 2013-02-05 12:27:13 UTC 
with the new multi-line input bar I think we can say this is not an issue anymore
