Video showing the bug

When the following dates are used on LO 5.0.0.3, the cells keep text format:

15/10/2017
16/10/2016
18/10/2015
19/10/2014
20/10/2013
21/10/2012

It should happen with 2011, but it doesn't.


To use as date, it's you need to follow these steps:

_clear the direct format
_it will include an ' in front of the value
_delete the ' in front of value
_now it's formatted as date

Please see attached video

On LO 4.4.1.2 it works ok.
Comment 2 Rafael Strozi 2015-07-23 21:31:13 UTC
The problem occurs between 2011 and 2019, on dates when the daylight savings starts in Brazil:

20/10/2019
21/10/2018
15/10/2017
16/10/2016
18/10/2015
19/10/2014
20/10/2013
21/10/2012
16/10/2011

Found the pattern here:

Hi Rafael,

In your video, you are using a scv file. If you select "detect special numbers", LO will format dates as you expect it. This works too for hours or scientific notation.
Comment 4 Rafael Strozi 2015-07-24 11:50:27 UTC
You are right Jacques! But why this happens with these dates? :)
