             Bug #: 48758
           Summary: TABLE: Number Format Recognition in Writer Tables is
                    Performed, though Option "Number Format Recognition"
                    is not Marked
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.2 Release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: harald-koester at htp-tel.de


Problem description: 

(1) Start LO and open a new text document.
(2) Mark Option "LibreOffice Writer > Table > Input in tables > Number
recognition", if not marked already.
(3) In the same Dialog reset options "Number format recognition" and
"Alignment" if not reset already.
(4) Insert a table.
(5) Mark all cells of the table and assign number format (Menu: Table > Number
Format...): Category: "Number"; Format: "-1,234.12"; Language: "English (USA)"
(6) Insert "123.4567" into a cell. Go to next cell (with mouse or with button
Tab). The number changes to "123.46". The number format of the cell is still
"Number".

The help text of option "Number format recognition" says: "If Number format
recognition is not marked, only input in the format that has been set at the
cell is accepted. Any other input resets the format to Text."

Hence I expect this: Change of the number format to "Text" and the contents
should be still "123.4567".

Problem also observed with the number formats Percent, Date and Time. I did not
check the other number formats, but I assume that the problem also exist there.

Behaviour observed in Version 3.4.6 and 3.5.2.
