Feature request - Row Deduplication #593

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Removing rows that are duplicate in one or more columns is clunky workaround.

My intuition when I went looking for a dedupe option was:

All > Edit Rows > Dedupe.. 

And then in a Dedupe dialogue:

'select columns for dedupe'

to allow the user to decide which 1..N cols should be used for deduplication.

Hitting a "deduplicate" button would then remove duplicate entries 
(col1_selected, ..., colM_selected)
