<h1>Advanced Settings of Spreadsheet Editor</h1>
<p><b>Spreadsheet Editor</b> lets you change its general advanced settings. To access them, open the <b>File</b> tab at the top toolbar and select the <b>Advanced Settings...</b> option. You can also click the <b>View settings</b> <img alt="View settings icon" src="../images/viewsettingsicon.png" /> icon on the right side of the editor header and select the <b>Advanced settings</b> option.</p>
2016-03-11 00:48:53 +00:00
<p>The general advanced settings are:</p>
<ul>
2017-08-10 10:05:49 +00:00
<li>
<b>Commenting Display</b> is used to turn on/off the live commenting option:
<ul>
<li><b>Turn on display of the comments</b> - if you disable this feature, the commented cells will be marked on the sheet only if you click the <b>Comments</b> <img alt="Comments icon" src="../images/commentsicon.png" /> icon at the left sidebar.</li>
<li><b>Turn on display of the resolved comments</b> - this feature is disabled by default so that the resolved comments were hidden on the sheet. You can view such comments only if you click the <b>Comments</b> <img alt="Comments icon" src="../images/commentsicon.png" /> icon at the left sidebar. Enable this option if you want to display resolved comments on the sheet.</li>

</ul>
</li>
<li><span class="onlineDocumentFeatures"><b>Autosave</b> is used in the <em>online version</em> to turn on/off automatic saving of changes you make while editing.</span> <span class="desktopDocumentFeatures"><b>Autorecover</b> - is used in the <em>desktop version</em> to turn on/off the option that allows to automatically recover spreadsheets in case of the unexpected program closing.</span></li>
<li><b>Reference Style</b> is used to turn on/off the <b>R1C1 reference style</b>. By default, this option is disabled and the <b>A1 reference style</b> is used.
<p>When the <b>A1 reference style</b> is used, columns are designated by letters, and rows are designated by numbers. If you select the cell located in row 3 and column 2, its address displayed in the box to the left of the the formula bar looks like this: <b>B3</b>. If the <b>R1C1 reference style</b> is enabled, both rows and columns are designated by numbers. If you select the cell at the intersection of row 3 and column 2, its address will look like this: <b>R3C2</b>. Letter R indicates the row number and letter C indicates the column number.</p>
<p><img alt="Active cell" src="../images/activecell.png" /></p>
<p>In case you refer to other cells using the <b>R1C1 reference style</b>, the reference to a target cell is formed based on the distance from an active cell. For example, when you select the cell in row 5 and column 1 and refer to the cell in row 3 and column 2, the reference is <b>R[-2]C[1]</b>. Numbers in square brackets designate the position of the cell you refer to relative to the current cell position, i.e. the target cell is 2 rows up and 1 column to the right of the active cell. If you select the cell in row 1 and column 2 and refer to the same cell in row 3 and column 2, the reference is <b>R[2]C</b>, i.e. the target cell is 2 rows down from the active cell and in the same column.</p>
