Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 3766
Decimal separator is not read from system setting and cannot be set
Last modified: 2003-11-01 04:00:22 UTC
My system has dot as the default decimal separator as I used to. Spreadsheet neither reads value from system settings neither allows to change it from ',' to '.'.
OOo only reads the language from the operating system (TOOLS-OPTIONS- LANGUAGE SETTINGS-LANGUAGE-DEFAULT). The decimal seperator, currency, date format etc. will be set for this language by OOo, so a special setting by the operating system will be ignored => enhancement.
i think it would be nice if oo.org had a choice between "use regional settings" "use '.'" "use ','" "use default for language selected" (or simply "default" :) )
