Hi dev-list, um.. Winfried that is.. maybe you should have your name in From ;) On Thursday, 2016-01-07 16:44:59 +0100, dev-list LO wrote:
That are 6 functions, with long names, e.g. FORECAST.ETS.STAT.MULT(). As an alternative I could add an optional argument to the function, indicating whether (1) additive, (2) multiplicative or (3) the best of the two is to be used for forecasts. IMHO the default value of the argument should be 3. On export/import to/from xlsx, this extra argument can be removed/inserted with value 1.
The problem with such extra parameters is always that you can not remove them on export if they aren't literal values, i.e. some expression or just a reference to a cell. Also, if an argument is used that is not the default value you can not remove it. These cases will make interoperability fail. So, as cumbersome as it is and polluting the Function Wizard, extra functions should be introduced instead. Eike -- LibreOffice Calc developer. Number formatter stricken i18n transpositionizer.
