            Bug ID: 111959
           Summary: Strange behaviour when locale changing forces a change
                    of separator character.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: luismiguel.lacosta at gmail.com

In calc when changing locale if the separator character is not valid then the
separator in formulas are changed automatically. 
When this happen there is a stange behaviour.

1) Create a new file with locale set to "English (USA)"

In this locale the separator is ","

2) Insert in cell A1 the formula

=LEFT("Text",2)

3) Change locale to "Spanish (Spain)"

In this locale the separator can't be "," so is changed to ";"

4) Press the mouse over cell A1 

The application then shows a message about change separator character and when
you accept a range of cells becomes selected moving the mouse changes the
selection as if the shift key was pressed.
