<h1>Advanced Settings of the Spreadsheet Editor</h1>
<p>The <a href="https://www.onlyoffice.com/en/spreadsheet-editor.aspx" target="_blank" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)"><b>Spreadsheet Editor</b></a> allows you to change its general advanced settings. To access them, open the <b>File</b> tab on the top toolbar and select the <b>Advanced Settings</b> option.</p>
<p>The advanced settings are grouped as follows:</p>
<h3>Editing and saving</h3>
<ol>
<li><span class="onlineDocumentFeatures"><b>Autosave</b> is used in the <em>online version</em> to turn on/off automatic saving of changes made during the editing process.</span></li>
<li><span class="desktopDocumentFeatures"><b>Autorecover</b> is used in the <em>desktop version</em> to turn on/off the option that allows you to automatically recover spreadsheets if the program closes unexpectedly.</span></li>
<li><b>Show the Paste Options button when the content is pasted</b>. The corresponding icon will appear when you paste content in the spreadsheet.</li>
<li><b>Show function tooltip</b> - enables tips for entering functions.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Collaboration</h3>
<ol>
<li class="onlineDocumentFeatures">
The <b>Co-editing mode</b> subsection allows you to set the preferable mode for seeing changes made to the spreadsheet when working in collaboration.
<ul>
<li><b>Fast</b> (by default). The users who take part in the spreadsheet co-editing will see the changes in real time once they are made by other users.</li>
<li><b>Strict</b>. All the changes made by co-editors will be shown only after you click the <b>Save</b> <div class="icon icon-saveupdate"></div> icon that will notify you about new changes.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Show changes from other users</b>. This feature allows seeing changes made by other users in the spreadsheet opened for viewing only in the <b>Live Viewer</b> mode.</li>
<li><b>Show comments in text</b>. If you disable this feature, the commented passages will be highlighted only if you click the <b>Comments</b> <div class="icon icon-commentsicon"></div> icon on the left sidebar.</li>
<li><b>Show resolved comments</b>. This feature is disabled by default so that the resolved comments are hidden in the spreadsheet. You can view such comments only if you click the <b>Comments</b> <div class="icon icon-commentsicon"></div> icon on the left sidebar. Enable this option if you want to display resolved comments in the spreadsheet.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Appearance</h3>
<ol>
<li>
The <b>Interface theme</b> option is used to change the color scheme of the editors interface.
<ul>
<li>The <b>Same as system</b> option makes the editor follow the interface theme of your system.</li>
<li>The <b>Light</b> color scheme incorporates standard blue, white, and light gray colors with less contrast in UI elements suitable for working during daytime.</li>
<li>The <b>Classic Light</b> color scheme incorporates standard blue, white, and light gray colors.</li>
<li>The <b>Dark</b> color scheme incorporates black, dark gray, and light gray colors suitable for working during nighttime.</li>
<li>The <b>Contrast Dark</b> color scheme incorporates black, dark gray, and white colors with more contrast in UI elements highlighting the working area of the file.</li>
<li>The <b>Gray</b> color scheme incorporates lighter gray color and appears as a uniformly light color scheme.</li>
<li>
The <b>Turn on document dark mode</b> option is used to make the working area darker when the editor is set to <b>Dark</b> or <b>Contrast Dark</b> interface theme. Check the <b>Turn on document dark mode</b> box to enable it.
<p class="note"><b>Note</b>: Apart from the available <b>Light</b>, <b>Classic Light</b>, <b>Dark</b>, <b>Contrast Dark</b>, and <b>Gray</b> interface themes, ONLYOFFICE editors can now be customized with your own color theme. Please follow <a target="_blank" href="https://helpcenter.onlyoffice.com/installation/docs-developer-change-theme.aspx" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">these instructions</a> to learn how you can do that.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Tab style</b> - choose whether you want the currently selected tab to be <em>filled</em> in with a lighter color with the <em>Fill</em> option or to be underlined with the <em>Line</em> option.</li>
<li><b>Use toolbar color as tabs background</b> - the color of the toolbar will be used as tabs background. The toolbar color depends on the currently selected interface theme.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Workspace</h3>
<ol>
<li>The <b>Turn on screen reader support</b> option is used to enable support of screen reader software.</li>
<li>
<p>The <b>R1C1 reference style</b> option is disabled by default and the A1 reference style is used.</p>
<p>When the <b>A1 reference style</b> is used, columns are designated by letters, and rows are designated by numbers. If you select the cell located in row 3 and column 2, its address displayed in the box to the left of the formula bar looks like this: <b>B3</b>. If the <b>R1C1 reference style</b> is enabled, both rows and columns are designated by numbers. If you select the cell at the intersection of row 3 and column 2, its address will look like this: <b>R3C2</b>. Letter R indicates the row number and letter C indicates the column number.</p>
<p><img alt="Active cell" src="../images/activecell.png" /></p>
<p>In case you refer to other cells using the <b>R1C1 reference style</b>, the reference to a target cell is formed based on the distance from an active cell. For example, when you select the cell in row 5 and column 1 and refer to the cell in row 3 and column 2, the reference is <b>R[-2]C[1]</b>. The numbers in square brackets designate the position of the cell relative to the current cell position, i.e. the target cell is 2 rows up and 1 column to the right of the active cell. If you select the cell in row 1 and column 2 and refer to the same cell in row 3 and column 2, the reference is <b>R[2]C</b>, i.e. the target cell is 2 rows down from the active cell and in the same column.</p>

</ol>

<ul>
<li>When the <b>Default cache mode</b> setting is enabled, Internet Explorer (v. 9, 10, 11) uses the <b>second cache mode</b>, other browsers use the <b>first cache mode</b>.</li>
