FIELD: data processing.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the processing of spreadsheets. One or more data items may be pulled from a grid-structured spreadsheet and may be allowed to "float" on the grid-structure spreadsheet without regard to the underlying grid. Floating object may be pushed or inserted back into the grid of the same or different spreadsheet at any location. Pulled data object also may be dropped onto a grid-less canvas user interface object and may be moved about on the canvas object in a free form manner. References between data and computations in the moved data object are structured and maintained so that the data object may be manipulated and increased/decreased without adversely affecting the underlying grid, and such that both data and computational references between the data object and the underlying grid are maintained.
EFFECT: technical result is the integration of the grid and the canvas in the spreadsheet application.
