Description David 2014-10-13 10:44:54 UTC
Created attachment 107771 [details]
Top half shows cells formatted with Number Forma: Currency tool (resulting in pound sign and decimal point); bottom half shows System Preferences (showing euro and decimal comma)

Currency formatting shows incorrect currency format, not matching that specified in System Preferences>Language & Region setting.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select cells filled with numeric data;
2. Select Number Format: Currency icon in toolbar
3. Cells formatted incorrectly.

Current behaviour: Cells formatted as GBP, showing pounds symbol and using point decimal separator.

Expected behaviour: Cells to be formatted with currency as specified in System Preferences.

@David : sorry, your jpg shows only the system locale setting and part of a sheet with what appears to be correct GBP number formatting - we'll need more info if we want to be able to try and reproduce

Please provide :

OSX version
LO version
Langpack and LO UI language if any

Langpack: sorry, not aware of that
LO UI language: English

Back to UNCONFIRMED as info was provided.
Comment 4 Alex Thurgood 2014-11-30 11:31:20 UTC
@David : the langpack is the extra dmg file that you download and install separately if you want correct support for your language. The default LO download for an English browser is en-US, which might be why you are not getting the results you would like.

My suggestion - try downloading and installing a langpack that has Euro as its native currency format. Possibly, the en-GB langpack also does this correctly (I haven't tested).

This is a duplicate, LibreOffice doesn't currently respect the regional/locale settings
