In ~ 125000 exchanges Mathsoft Collaboratory I bet < 12 work sheets were exchanged with reference to other work sheet. It might be useful in Smath from prime consideration but in fact it is limited to specific functions, some type of program that would be cumbersome otherwise ... but the collapsed area is a much better approach as it keeps the document stand alone
Could you rephrase or elaborate on this. I'm curious to know what you mean here.

include("string" ) - include sm-file .... as it looks: same as Mathcad/Mathsoft "reference"
i.e: reference to a work sheet that contains the program to be used elsewhere in any work sheet.
In all my visits to this forum, I have no recollection collabs posting a long valid work sheet
doing something useful in reference to a master "include'.
Mathcad/Mathsoft distributed many e-books, some with very few "reference"
One of them was so gigantic "Creating Amazing Images" that the bright Norvegian made it OTHERWISE
His 15 MB e-book is all in "globally defined mode". So, any specific work sheet [project] is also
globally defined ... works magic. Smath does not have the global definition. Sometimes I wish Smath
have global definition. So, you can define parameters at the point of use, past the function
definition. The way around is to include the parameters in the function definiion itself.
Having it: I would use occasionaly, I don't have: fine [not worth a cry].
You mention "Combobox". What could that be ? In 15 years of intensive forums [Process Control
and Instrumentation, Mathematica, Math forum, OriginLab, Mathsoft, now Smath] ... I don't even
imagine what "Combobox" would do for me because what that is ?
The Smath "compactor" enables to collect plotting arguments [I have not used more than 8]
The real limit ? Don't kow.
Using Smath correctly is the key. When you have problem: attach your work sheet,
Many collab will doctor your project. Your function f(x,y):= somtehing ... has no plotting interest
It must have parameters . Smath Maxima X_Y plot is gorgeous on that for plotting contours,
as many as you wish. This fall, I posted "Doublet" a great piece of work based on the "compactor".
What was your question/problem ?
An area within an area is like the pigeon pregant of the mouse, the mouse pregnant of the elephant.
