Created attachment 117592 [details] Comparison of display for positive and negative exponent Description: some value with General format are displayed in scientific notation if they are too big to fit in column width. In this case, trailing zeroes remain, which is not the case with very small values (most of the time) Steps to reproduce: 1. Enter a calculation such as =10^30 Actual behaviour: With General format, display looks like 1.00000E+30 (or 1.0000E+030 with version previous to LibO 5) Expected behaviour: Display should be 1E+30 (or 1E+030 with previous versions). There is no bug for negative power: =10^-30 gives as expected 1E-30 Attached file shows some comparison between positive and negative exponent. There are also trailing zeroes for 10^-9
