When you press alt+p and go to "edges" ("randen" in Dutch), the program sometimes shows a comma as decimal seprator and sometimes a dot. It should always be a comma considering the fact I have my language set to Dutch, which is a language that uses commas as decimal separators, unlike English.

Note: This issue might also appear in more places than just the alt+p menu.

Steps to Reproduce:
This only appears in the Dutch translation of LibreOffice!! Go to description for an image.
1. Open Writer (this might also appear in different programs, like Impress, and this might also appear in other sections of the UI. I haven't checked that.)
2. Press alt+p.
3. Go to "edges" ("randen" in Dutch)

Actual Results:
The decimal separator is a dot (.)

Expected Results:
The decimal separator should've been a comma (,)


Reproducible: Always

Comment 2 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-01-19 08:39:52 UTC
Same thing in the Format Cells dialog in Calc, so not just Writer.

The Line width dropdown in the sidebar (for e.g. a shape) does not have this issue.

Reproduced with French (France) locale in:

Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: f1830bff71847a9c17715cff52383956719847fe
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: fr-FR (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

and in 7.3:

Version: 7.3.7.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: e114eadc50a9ff8d8c8a0567d6da8f454beeb84f
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: fr-FR (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

But not in 7.2.

These border presets were introduced in 7.3 by Samuel for bug 48622. I'm calling this an implementation error for now (rather than a regression). Can you please have a look, Samuel?

Dear derussischefraudeerbeer,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword
