Problem description: Steps to reproduce: 1. Tools > Options > LibreOffice Calc > Calculate Current behavior: Last option indicates: Limit decimals for general number format Expected behavior: "General" number format is present nowhere else in UI. In Format > Cell or number format button, it stands for "Standard" number format Option label should be changed in: Limit decimals for Standard number format Also, Help is ambiguous: https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Calculate#Limit_decimals_for_general_number_format speaks about "general number format" and https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Calculate#Decimal_places about Standard number format, but refer to the same format. Operating System: All Version: 4.0.0.0.beta2
I confirm the inadequacy of the message displayed: "general number format" Presence verified on versions 3.5, 3.6, 4.0
Thanks to Eike I realised that the problem is not with the UI, but with the translation in the "Locale setting" and not the UI. At least Help is incorrect for Tools > Options > LibreOffice Calc > Calculate "Decimal places" https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Calculate#Decimal_places Replace Defines the number of decimals to be displayed for numbers with the <emph>Standard</emph> number format. by Defines the number of decimals to be displayed for numbers with the <emph>General</emph> number format. file help/source/text/shared/optionen/01060500.xhp line 220
