Not sure if this has been suggested already, but I think that it would be really helpful if the table row and column labels did not scroll out of view. (See Winbin for what I mean)
When working in a reduced window (e.g. to compare values with another program - e.g. Excel), it is only possible to see *some* of the table that you're editing. Unfortunately, at the moment, the labels are scrolling off - making it awkward to edit the right cell.
Sorry if I'm bombarding you with suggestions and bugs...

hehe, actually, I already have this implemented. The problem you describe is a result of the table itself scrolling out of the *workspace* area, in which case there is nothing I can do.
The solution is to offer the ability to resize the table editor itself, which would in-turn resize the table grid and the grid itself would have its own scroll bars (a la winbin) ... and only *then*, when you scroll, would the axis labels remain.
however, allowing one to resize the table editor window itself as well as allowing the workspace to be scrollable is awefully redundant.

You have certainly implemented a lot of resizing. And to add another layer probably does seem like redundancy, but that does not detract from the validity of the user requirement to be able to see the row and column labels irrespective of the section of the table being viewed. This is why I called the subject 'freeze panes' - after the Excel feature. It really is a major ease-of-use issue.
