Editor Update: Animation, Drill-Down, and Other Improvements

The latest update to the desktop editors, version 2026.1.2.1942, brings more than 50 improvements, most of them related to working with spreadsheets. There are four new features: GIF animation in presentations, column width adjustment in charts, and new options for pivot tables and Smart Tables.

The Spreadsheet Editor now lets you change column widths in charts. This is useful if you want to improve the readability and clarity of your data, control information density, or emphasize key data.

Another new feature is drilling down into pivot table details without the source data. Double-click the cell you need.

You can also now edit the name of a Smart Table in the right sidebar (the “Table Settings” section).

A Smart Table is a way of formatting ranges so that data from several adjacent cells is treated as a single structure. To create one, select the cells, then choose “Table” on the “Insert” menu. The table formatting appears, and you can work with the table as an object.

The table settings now include an editable “Table Name” field that shows the current name (for example, Table1). If no table is active, the field is hidden or unavailable. If you leave the field empty or enter a name that is not unique, you will see a notification.

Among the general improvements, we updated the Russian-language help (DE-6842), including its screenshots and the information about autosave in the editor header (DE-3778).
Fixed XSS vulnerabilities in the “Horizontal Axis Labels” (DE-6317), “Edit Series” (DE-6318), and “Number Format” (DE-6319) dialogs.

Fixed several formulas and functions:

• The decimal separator in IMEXP is now a comma (DE-4240).
• DOLLAR now works correctly with the Russian locale (DE-4288).
• MATCH, MDETERM, and MINVERSE now work correctly when the data is on another sheet (DE-4290, DE-4294, DE-4305).
• NETWORKDAYS.INTL now handles the “Weekend” parameter correctly when it is taken from a cell (DE-4308).
• Fixed an error that caused SUMIFS to return 0 when an argument value contained a sheet reference (DE-6566).
• Fixed an error that prevented the “Get Data” function from working with .xml files (Spreadsheet ML) on Debian 12 (DE-6057).

Fixed several errors that occurred when opening or importing .csv files:

• cells did not display zero values unless the “Automatic cell format recognition” option was turned off (DE-5003),
• incorrect data import or conversion with format recognition enabled (DE-6179, DE-6216), including on RED OS (DE-6850),
• commas were converted to periods in currency and scientific formats (DE-6217).

Other bug fixes:

• an error when opening an .xml (Spreadsheet ML) file created in MS Excel 2016 (DE-6056),
• inserted objects were missing some interface elements (DE-6105),
• some values were not displayed in the filter window for data in the “Date” format (DE-6125),
• when sorting a selected range, the first cell or row was left out of the sort (DE-6167),
• copying a sheet to another workbook when clicking the “Cancel” button (DE-6171),
• an error that caused a pivot table to become flat when saved (DE-6254),
• on Linux Debian, controls were not displayed in the objects field (DE-6391),
• when filtering, empty cells were displayed as 1900 (DE-6398),
• when filtering data in a range of at least 200,000 rows and at least 20 columns, the date filter selection window did not display all years and months (DE-6400),
• when double-clicking a value in a pivot table that used grouping, the data with the source columns did not open (DE-6419),
• an extra bracket character was added automatically when opening arguments (DE-6690).

Added support for GIF animation when starting a slideshow. Animated elements both entertain (holding attention) and serve practical purposes (visualizing processes, as a lighter alternative to video).

This build fixes the following bugs:

• Pasting the current screenshot from the clipboard (DE-5625).
• The “Copy Style” tool applied the style to the entire text instead of the selected fragment (DE-6140).
• Fill and border transparency in tables was not preserved when saving a presentation in .pptx format (DE-6190, 6282).
• Presenter View did not work in presentations (DE-6198).
• An error occurred when clicking “Advanced Settings” in the embedded Spreadsheet Editor (DE-6386).

Also fixed an XSS vulnerability via the context menu in the Animation, Trigger section (DE-6320).

The Document Editor now correctly handles the $ character in hyperlinks (DE-6286). Fixed XSS vulnerabilities in the color scheme name (DE-6313), in the comment field editing window (DE-6314), via the style name in the context menu (DE-6321), and in the “Document changes are locked by another user” message that appeared when the document name contained ~$ (DE-6324).

The following bugs have also been fixed:

• Only the first page appeared when opening a file created in .docx, and the file was locked for editing (DE-5529).
• A document containing an image with an inserted hyperlink displayed incorrectly (DE-5828).
• Comments were saved as shared across all text documents (DE-6255).
• Borders of tables with a filled background were displayed incorrectly when printing (DE-6262).
• Controls were displayed twice when opening embedded files (DE-6391).
• Printing the current page printed the first page instead (DE-6416).

Three fixes affect the application as a whole:

• An error that prevented the previous version from being removed after an update in silent installation mode on Windows (DE-3379).
• An error that prevented the data refresh operation from completing when data in an external source was changed on the server side (DE-6133).
• In the list of connected drives, the name “Mail.ru Cloud (VK)” was changed to “VK WorkSpace Drive” (DE-6583).

We recommend updating the editors to version 2026.1.2.1942 for maximum performance and security.
