Description

The Spreadsheet SetAlias tool opens a dialog to set up an alias for a cell. Instead of using the exact cell name like A2, B3, or C4, a custom name can be used.

Usage

  1. Make sure there is an active Spreadsheet open so that the button is enabled.
  2. Select a cell that contains either a number or a valid expression (e.g. a number with a unit).
  3. Press the Spreadsheet SetAlias button.
  4. Enter an alias, which should be composed of simple, latin-only alphanumeric characters [A-Za-z_], without spaces or special symbols.
