Fields with wanted Excel formulas don't work anymore

Created on 25 November 2024, 4 months ago

Our exports generate Excel formulas in specific columns. Since the changes in issue #3268139 were merged in, they have stopped working correctly. They now show the user the formula because of the prepended apostrophe.

In the source issue's initial proposed resolution, the following is mentioned: "If needed in the interface create an option that will allow formulas for certain field values."

Will such an option be implemented? If not on a per-field basis, could it be applied by view or, at least, globally?

    I think perhaps adding some dedicated field formatters for select formula (an obvious formula would be HYPERLINK) may make sense to work around this issue.
