            Bug ID: 108090
           Summary: Add information, where to change the delimiters for
                    constant matrix in Calc
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.2.6.2 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

The help in /help/source/text/scalc/01/04060107.xhp
says in section "Using Inline Array Constants in Formulas"
<quote>
The column separator (separating elements in one row) and the row separator are
language and locale dependent. But in this help content, the ';' semicolon and
'|' pipe symbol are used to indicate the column and row separators,
respectively. For example, in the English locale, the ',' comma is used as the
column separator, while the ';' semicolon is used as the row separator.
</quote>
But the help does not mention, where the user can find the actual setting for
his version. And the help is missing, that the user can alter this setting.

I suggest (in content, not literally)
The row and column separator can be seen and altered in Tools > Options > Calc
> Formula > Separators.

Such information in the help might prevent bug reports like bug 42947 or bug
108087.
