Steps: 1. Check that the angle quotes rule is on in Tools > AutoCorrect > AutoCorrect Options... > Localized Options 2. Make language of paragraph or document French (France) 3. Write two consecutive less-than or greater-than signs followed by a space: << or >> Result: left and right double quotation marks (“ and ”) are used respectively Expected: left- and right-pointing double angle quotation (aka guillemets, « and ») are used respectively, as described in the Help page: https://help.libreoffice.org/24.2/en-US/text/shared/01/06040400.html Note that the rule works as described if the text is in French (Swiss): the single angle quotes are used. Reproduced in recent master build: Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 19e9fe7c8c89399753ac1730e1c76378b18418bc CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded It's the case since it was implemented for LO 4.2 (tested with linux-64-releases bibisect repo at libreoffice-4.2.0.0.beta1).
Reproducible with: Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 5e9c8d21874eea8cb5adf2ecab1905295af2308f CPU threads: 16; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 22621; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: es-ES (es_ES); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded Jumbo Works fine with Spanish(Spain), the replacement doesn't wait for the space. BTW if not followed with a space, there is no substitution.

Dear Stéphane Guillou (stragu), 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 Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!
