Description emefbee 2014-07-06 20:31:06 UTC
Problem description: 

Numbers with decimal places switch to displaying "###" after a save or autosave. It can be corrected by using the menu of cell formatting and setting 1 decimal place there. It only stays so until next autosave.

When the displaying of those cells contents/results is OK, those cells also ignore a button that tells them to decrease the number of decimal places. But pressing a button to increase the number of decimal places suddenly makes them jump up to a single decimal place. This is in a sheet that has been copied via the sheet copy feature.

The cells in question have a simple equation "=H11/2", etc.

Steps to reproduce:
1. ....
2. ....
3. ....

Current behavior:
as above


Expected behavior:
spreadsheet software should NEVER EVER change the contents of the spreadsheet tables and properties willy nilly on its own.
              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.1.5.3 release

the 4.1.x version you are using is end-of-life
try upgrading to 4.2.5.2 and tell if issue persists

Please at least provide the sample document. Marking as NEEDINFO.

Once you attach a sample document (and hopefully test against 4.2) - set the bug to UNCONFIRMED. Thanks
