Bug #: 53177
Summary: CONFIGURATION "Use 'English (USA)' locale for numbers"
messes with dates and "insert link to external data"
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 3.6.0.4 rc
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Spreadsheet
AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
ReportedBy: narebeestjes at yahoo.com
The global configuration setting
Load/Save -> HTML Compatibility -> Use English (USA) locale for number
causes the following:
- numbers with a "." as decimal separator are recognised and inserted in
"NUMBER" fields
- instead of just importing numbers as text this configuration messes with
dates:
dates: day and month are swapped around if day-of-month < 13
- this function overrules the per-import choice for locale and recognising
numbers and dates (bug 53103)
I guess this setting does not make sense since in this form and with this
description: it offers only a partial solution for bug 47109 and as
disadvantages messes with dates and per-import choices.
