! QCalc is a standard Qt application with menu, toolbar, main area (showing the spreadsheet by default) and a status bar which displays helpful status information. The spreadsheet takes the form of a table with columns numbered <guilabel>A</guilabel>, <guilabel>B</guilabel>, etc., and rows <guilabel>1</guilabel>, <guilabel>2</guilabel>, etc. The table is browsed with the usual mouse and keyboard operations.

! QCalc is a standard Qt application with menu, toolbar, main area (showing the spreadsheet by default) and a status bar which displays helpful status information like the current cell index and the line number in the script editor.

  <para>
! Rectangular ranges of spreadsheet cells can be selected by sweeping the mouse over them as usual, or by using the cursor keys while holding down the <keycap>Shift</keycap> key. You can also click a row or column header to select the entire row or column. NOTE: Selecting ranges of cells with the mouse or the keyboard can be hard to do if the cells contain editable GUI elements like comboboxes and spinboxes (see <xref linkend="basicguiops"/>). As a remedy, if you are not currently editing a cell, the <keycap>Esc</keycap> key allows you to switch the table from the default mode of operation to a special "read-only" mode. This mode is indicated by a tiny lock symbol in the status line. While the table is in read-only mode, editing operations on ranges of cells still work normally, but GUI elements are not activated when selected any more. This makes it much easier to browse the table and make selections with the mouse or the cursor keys. To leave read-only mode, either just press <keycap>Esc</keycap> again, or double-click on a cell or press <keycap>F3</keycap> to open a cell for editing.

  <para>
! Selected ranges of cells can be deleted, cut, copied and pasted as usual. Using cut/copy and paste you can also transfer ranges between different instances of QCalc. Moreover, QCalc performs automatic adjustment of relative column and row indices in formulas. Thus, if you copy a cell containing the formula "<literal>= foo A1</literal>" to a position at an offset of, say, 2 rows and 3 columns from the original position, it will become "<literal>= foo D3</literal>". As usual, you can use the $ symbol to indicate absolute row or column indices (or both) which will not be adjusted.

! NOTE: Browsing the table and selecting ranges of cells with the mouse or the keyboard can be hard to do if the cells contain editable GUI elements like comboboxes and spinboxes (see <xref linkend="basicguiops"/>), since these will grab the focus when they are selected. As a remedy, if you are not currently editing a cell, the <keycap>Esc</keycap> key allows you to switch the table from the default mode of operation to a special "browse" mode which is indicated by a tiny lock symbol in the status line. While the table is in browse mode, editing operations on ranges of cells still work normally, but GUI elements are not activated when selected any more. This makes it much easier to browse the table and make selections with the mouse or the cursor keys. To leave browse mode, either just press <keycap>Esc</keycap> again, or double-click on a cell or press <keycap>F3</keycap> to open a cell for editing.
