Checkboxes & Stock Prices

Post by Trendfirst »

I just downloaded Softmaker for Linux and installed on my Ubuntu workstation. I'm hoping to replace LibreCalc, which I have found buggy, crashy, and overall undependable. Tired of losing data, so I'm looking for alternatives.

My first attempt at using PlanMaker was an import of a LibreCalc spreadsheet that contain checkboxes. Lots of them. None of the checkboxes were imported.

I've looked for a way to insert checkboxes, but did not find anything. Help?

Second, is there a way to get live stock quotes in PlanMaker?

Thanks

To insert checkboxes in the sheet please click on ribbon command Insert | Object group | Form Object | Checkbox.

I too would like to know whether there is any way to import live stock prices into my PlanMaker spreadsheets.

No, currently this is not possible.

Aw. That would be such a great feature. Even if it were just the previous day's closing price, not live live, it would be so helpful. Something to consider for a future update, perhaps?

re stock prices. Is it possible to link a sheet in Planmaker with Google Sheets. That way, I can make a Google Sheet of stock symbols and prices I am interested in and that be "read into" my Planmaker sheet for investment management?

I don't think it's possible.
