merge *not* text

Hi,

is there any way that a specified merged cell is not a text but a number? Or to remove, after everything has been merged, the ' character in front?

Thanks a lot

Hi Giorg,

You can merge not-text values in an ODS file, but for now such data items will not change the type of the cell. I.e. the cell will stay String typed if the merged value is a number.

You can add special TBS fields that will change the type of the cell, but it is a bit bold.

I'm currently working on operators that help to change the type a cells easily. I'm in the middle of the development and it should be available soon.

Hi Giorg,

Here it is:
http://www.tinybutstrong.com/dl.php?f=tbs_plugin_opentbs_beta.zip&s=3

See the ODS demo (in the package)  for details.
This version of the OpenTBS plug-in requires TBS version 3.6.2 which is provided in beta version in the demo folder.

I was unable to download the beta file mentioned above. Is it still available?
