Description jmontane 2023-08-16 20:09:48 UTC 
I request a way to define default values by language for Autocorrect localized options.

Case:

Tools>AutoCorrect>AutoCorrect Options…>Localized Options, “Format ordinal numbers suffixes (1st → 1^st)” is enabled as default for **all** languages. For Catalan (and maybe other languages), it should be disabled by default or alternatively permanently.


I can disable this option at user's profile, but I didn't find any way to disable this Autocorrect option for Catalan language as default.

This and some other options should be customizable with/during installation (langpacks or language versions of LO).

In some languages such constructs, or transformations, are meaningless anyway. Hebrew doesn't have an equivalent of "1st"; you have ראשון (meaning first) and that's that. I _think_ there is no such thing in Arabic but I'm not 100% sure. In fact, I wonder how many languages _do_ have this...

AutoCorrect options are about _document content_, not UI languages, so having that depend on langpacks doesn't make sense.
