In the attached document, see the three text input fields. Their values are 0€, 0$, and 0£. 

Formatting the text fields to be single lined and aligned right, will hide the currency symbol (altough it stays in the input field), just to far on the right.

If you expand the text box a little bit (select text box and drag the middle-right green square to expand that box), you can see the currency. I think this is a bug in the text box. When you select the option 'align right' and 'single line' LO only look at the digit to align, not the currency symbol ...

Reproducable under Mac OSX 10.7.4; LO 3.6.0 beta 3 (Build ID: 3e2b862)

I just checked and the bug is still present in LibreOffice 6.3.3.2

Interestingly enough, the rendering is fine when opening the Print Preview.

I will attach screenshots of the problem.

Dear madmuffin,

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!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
