Gnumeric, which version?

[pointertovoid]

Hello nice people!

 

I've been using Gnumeric and Excel concurrently, for the same goal - Gnumeric giving a more logical access to graph properties and settings for instance.

 

----------

 

First, I'd like to tell Windows users that

v1.12.17 from June 2014

is said to be the last for which a Window build will be distributed (unless someone decides to make and distribute these builds again).

 

This build isn't obvious to find at the homepage, but I got mine from

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnumeric.mirror/files/

 

----------

 

Then, a question:

 

What is the best version for Windows? Gnumeric v1.12.17 has some bizarre bugs that can be annoying. For instance, it doesn't save changes in graph settings, so you lose them when exiting and reopening a spreadsheet. Or it saves only the latest single setting you changed, not the complete set.

 

So: did you have a better experience with a previous version?

 

Thanks!
