It was only when there're cells selected in the sheet. I don't know wheter
it is intentional or not. Perhaps other KSpread developers can explain
this.

That Series dialog is surely adopted from Excel's, including even the
strings. Here I do agree, for most of your "s/". I'm not sure why
Parameters should be vertically arranged, I fix it however. And also
s/End/Stop, because Start vs Stop while Begin vs End. Will commit this
very soon.

done.

Enough fixes for today :-P

For this question:

Here is the simple answer: select a range before hitting Format menu.
