Already didn't work in 3.5.7.2, it did work in earlier OOo though.

Comment 4 Lior Kaplan 2013-04-24 06:17:13 UTC

The weird thing is that it works fine for Frasi (IRR), while it doesn't work for any of the other Arabic languages.

Comment 5 Faisal Menawer 2013-04-24 11:51:43 UTC

it is work fine for Frasi (IRR) because it is print the number before
the currency.

if you change the format to print the currency first the problem appear too.

And i notice something the Farsi currency are moving if you change the
text direction.
is this a correct behavior?

I suspect the cause to be deep inside vcl and the layout algorithms. If anyone could dig into that?

I don’t use spreadsheet applications, so I’m not really sure how to follow the listed steps, is there a dummies version of this or, even better, a test file that I can just open to see the effect of this bug?
