    It would be great to have this feature supporting also ribbon items (e.g. I don't want to show 'Log in' button when user is already logged in, instead I would expect 'Log out'). Moreover, certain group of commands could be shown based on the cell selection, etc.

    And not only from task pane but from ribbon as well (imagine dropdown item where you select item which you want to show)... similar to ShowTaskPane function.

    It would be great to give them ability to change the size dynamically as well.
    Also I don't understand why in the browser edition (Office365) the width is fixed. This should be improved as well.

    Please consider the requirements for Drag and Drop. IT would make many user interactions much simpler when you just move something from Pane to Sheet and vice versa not having to always select cell first, etc.

    Any update? Sorry, but it will be one year since your "needs more information" respond.

    Moreover, it would be great also to support D&D feedback so customized icons can be shown.

    atti commented  · 

    I agree with the previous comment with one more requirement that D&D from sheet to taskpane should work.
    Moreover, it would be great if D&D from task pane could generate UDF (once implemented in JS API) in the target cell or would allow to show some custom dialog (to select what to do).

    atti commented  · 

    It is must have from usability perspective. It is much easier to drag/drop than manually selecting cell and then again going to task pane to e.g. insert value.

    Hi Brian. Thank you for your input, it is greatly appreciated! We’ve added this to our backlog as something we want to implement. There are many items on the backlog, so we can’t set an exact estimated time for this, but we’ll keep you posted with status updates.

    Thanks!

    Note that there is this requirement that could also help in certain cases:

    atti commented  · 

    This is extremely annoying thing! Note that it completely breaks functionality of many addins!

    We definitely need to have some option how to cancel the edit OR JS API should work fine even when in this mode (at least reading operations like getting cell address should work!).

    @All: in different but similar feature requirements there is this response (see below) so each of you should take a look:
    ---------------------------
    Thank you for your request!

    We are collecting API requirements for developing Office Add-ins in Excel, specifically for Events API.

    If you are considering moving an existing COM/VSTO/VBA Add-in to Office Add-in, or creating a new Office Add-in in Excel, and have events requirements, please fill the survey below and help us focus on the right set of events and design. We truly appreciate your help!

    I don't understand why there is Document.SelectionChanged but not Document.DataChanged. What if I have workbook and I want to capture any change there? Why I need to bother with bindings?

    Not even talking about the fact that it is really useful to get data BEFORE and also data AFTER the change.

    Renat, thanks for reporting this issue! We are aware of this and the bug is currently being patched. Note that the undo stack will be removed upon any “update” action occurring in the add-in. For read actions, we’ll preserve the undo-stack. We’ll let you know when this is available.

    Thanks,
