I think that you should tell MS to get their sh*t together.ġ0. Excel is a 30 year old program and the bugs I am reporting are things like scrolling, cursor position, and general viewing. I'm all about following the process, but I want to highlight just how silly this is. "Microsoft Agents" work for Microsoft Support. "Independent Advisors" work for contractors hired by Microsoft. I am an unpaid volunteer and do not work for Microsoft. Also include your thoughts about which bug/broken/missing feature needs to be addressed first and which wouldīe nice to fix but isn't immediately critical. I'll run this by Microsoft through the MVP program and see what they say.įor this discussion thread, everyone who wants to help can post replies here with links to existing Q&A in the forum along with fresh contributions. It should have a voting scheme similar to that found in the suggestion box. What we probably need is an additional forum to theĮxcel suggestion box, one that is for bug fixes and missing features. Then we accede to their request and offer our prioritization suggestions. Our reply is then "get the resources" and they reply that the resources don't exist or cost too much. Reply that they don't have the resources to do that. Of course, we want Microsoft to fixe everything right away and they will There are other things I am forgetting so if you too hate office 2016, please add them below!Īs MVP I can tell you that the first thing Microsoft will ask us to do is to prioritize which things we would like them to work on first, and which things can be put off until later. The first character will still be dropped. If you put a long pause between clicking a cell and actually typing IE, you might type 100 but only 00 get entered. When entering numbers on a larger file there will be a consistent lag drop of your first character. When the edit window is open to the right and you scroll you will be teleported way to the right of your file. BAM! You are teleported to cell AB354 which does not even exist in your sheet yet.Ĩ. Sheet multiplied by A1 in the second sheet in the file. IE, lets say a formula was being entered that was A1 in the current
#CHAR() EXCEL LIST FOR MAC SERIES#
When changing the series in a plot or equation that is on another sheet the calculation of the equation will send you to a random location in the sheet. Other times it appears to be on one side of a character, but no, its on the other side so you start typing in the wrongħ. Sometimes its in the middle of a character. The cursor in the formula bar shows up in random locations. Select all does not work in the formula bar.Ħ. I have no experienced any left right error only up and always by 1/2 aĥ. When this occurs the actual cursor position will be nearly exactly 1/2 row higher. The cursor position at times will get an offset error. This feature will just shut off and not be possible until a restart brings itĤ.

This is the feature that is created when the cross hairs turn solid black. The double click lower right corner auto propagate feature at times will turn off. This is particularly prominent in the left to right scroll bar.ģ. About 50% of the time they will appear right under your mouseĪnd then disappear when you click so you click the cells below instead. This would be fine, if they didn't appear and disappear randomly when in use. The scroll bars in excel take the trendy new approach where they hide when not in use. The only way to get back to the top of the file is to drag and drop the scroll bar.Ģ. My view will get stuck at around row 100 and no amount of scroll wheeling with make the view go higher. For me, this is especially prominent when scrolling from row ~300 to the top of the file. The scrolling in excel is very choppy and gets hung up at certain points. This problem has been documented since the very beginning of the beta. See it and think "wow, we really have a problem here".ġ. Thus I have created the following list of grievances in the hope that someone at MS will But updates have come and gone and the issues remain unaddressed. The issues I was experiencing were so fundamental that certainly they would be fixed in the next update. I have posted a few here and there, but I wanted to create a new discussion that takes a more holistic approach.

I have been mistified by the issues I have run into.
