Name Box screenshot

In Calc, the leftmost element on Formula bar is named "Name Box" - as the tooltip on the screenshot suggests. However, in our help [1] [2] [3] it is named "Sheet Area box".

One or the other needs to be changed for consistency.

@Oliver, what's your opinion ?
Comment 2 Mike Kaganski 2019-12-29 11:32:12 UTC
Also "Sheet Area Input Field" name is used in core in single place - for ".uno:FocusCellAddress" [1].

"Name Box" also is only used once - for the tooltip mentioned in comment 0 [2] - or twice, if count tips of the day [3].
