6.3.1 Setting Recalculation Method

 

Recalculation Method allows defines how NExS will proceed with recalculation. There are two options: As Needed and Foreground.

  As Needed means that recalculation is highly optimized to recompute the minimum number of cells when updating the sheet. This can result in significant performance improvement for certain types of sheets, particularly on very large sheets. This option is unique to NExS.


As Needed does not support Constraint Checking and Iteration Limits.

  Foreground means that minimal recalculation is performed, similar to other spreadsheets.

To change recalculation method:

  1. Select Recalc Options from the Options menu. NExS displays the Recalc Options dialog box as show in Figure 6.1.

  2. Move the pointer to the Recalc Method option button. While holding down the left mouse button to display the options point to the desired option and release.

  3. Apply your selection by clicking OK or Apply.
