    I'm not sure if anyone can shed light on this, but I'm finding it really hard to put together any rhyme or reason for the moves Elon has been making at Twitter. Many of the decisio…

    Ahh you have no idea how much trouble I have with unit clashes, not to mention stock price / currencies (btw stocks aren't in at the moment). It's on the roadmap though and good to…

    These are great suggestions! Some of them are on the road map but lots of good additions too. > What I am trying to say is: is there a way for me to see if there are changes I have…

    Thanks great feedback and completely agree about the clunkiness around sums! As a mitigation I did add row highlighting (if you hover over a var it'll highlight the row it was defi…

    Oh yeah completely agree. I've been working (on and off) on some designs embedding other non-text items into the sheet e.g. tables, graphs, etc. Still in the early phases but the d…
