            Bug ID: 139929
           Summary: Language Settings decimal separator key same as locale
                    setting no longer works
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.3.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dev-bugs-documentfoundation at mildred.fr

In "Language Settings" option dialog, "Languages" panel, when unchecking the
"Decimal separator key: same as locale setting", the LibreOffice calc behaviour
is not changed.

When the locale defines the comma "," as decimal separator, it would be
convenient to have Calc accepts numbers formatted as "12.42" as valid numbers
instead of interpreting them as text.

I seem to remember that in older versions of Calc, the above setting could be
unchecked to use the dot everywhere as decimal separator. Now, even when
unchecked, Calc only understands the comma as separator. The problem happens in
bare cell content, in formulas, in CSV import and likely in other places where
a number is interpreted.
