Office 365 on the web Excel Add-in does not function correctly about office-js

Hi @Tom-H2oThermo,

Could you please provide more context in a GitHub comment? I'm disinclined to open a .pdf file posted to a public forum like this.

Ok, I’ll work on revising my post this evening. It will have the same content, just not in a PDF format.

Thank you. You should be able to directly paste images into a GitHub comment field.

Alex, I deleted the PDF in my original post and replaced it with text and images. Your review of this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks @Tom-H2oThermo. That difference in experience between desktop and web certainly seems like a bug. I'm going to transfer this to the office-js repo where a member of the custom functions feature crew can help you more.

[Tom-H2oThermo]

Thanks Alex. Yes it definitely seems like a bug to me. Hopefully it can be resolved soon. Thanks again.

Regards,
Tom

Hi @Tom-H2oThermo,
Sorry for the delay here! This is an known issue in office online Excel application and we had raised tasks 8668416 and 8668388 to track this issue. You could find the discussion from this link: #3228.
So, basically there will be a new feature for excel online including insert dialog, inline typing, arguments refactor and so on. Any update will post there! Thanks!

Thank you Rui, But the #3328 issue is only a part of the problem. The bigger problem is when you click on the fx to the left of the formula bar. I don’t see where this was brought up in the #3328 issue. Excel Desktop version: Once you enter the formula, clicking on the fx to the left of the formula bar brings up a Function Arguments window where you can enter values. Excel Web Version: Instead of a Function Arguments window, it opens and Insert function window. Hopefully, the solution your team are working on will resolve this issue also. I greatly appreciate any help you can provide in this matter.
