            Bug ID: 144978
           Summary: Decimal point - Should not be dependent of language
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: carlosvgonzalez at gmail.com

Description:
As it seems the Libre Office choice of documents decimal point seems related
with language settings, that seems really bad choice, and I have only seen that
happen with libre office. I write documents in Portuguese and English, I want
to use . as decimal point but it seems Libre Office only accepts , because of
my main language, there's only a check box in the language settings showing
regional settings as ( , ), even if my windows 10 is set to ( . ) Libre office
only seems to recognize ( , ) for decimal point, does matter if the toglle is
on or off the result seems to be always the same.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Windows decimal point set to ( . )
2. Libre office only accepts my default language - Portuguese as ( , ) decimal
separator
3. Settings toggle on or off does not seem to make any difference, in both new
and old documents.

Actual Results:
3. Settings toggle on or off does not seem to make any difference, in both new
and old documents.

Expected Results:
1 - Libre office should respect system decimal point seperator settings.
2 - What about multi language documents, wouldn't be a nice idea to have an
override settings?


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
1 - Libre office should respect system decimal point seperator settings.
2 - What about multi language documents, wouldn't be a nice idea to have an
override settings?
