------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Jan 19 01:52:56 -0800 2006 ------- FME: Analysis: The current implementation is like this: The SvxTabStop object has a member cDecimal, that stores the decimal separator. If you insert a decimal tab stop by clicking into the ruler, the decimal separator for this tab stop will be set to the value obtained from the LocaleDataWrapper (depending on the language set at Tools - Options - Language Setting - Languages - Locale Setting). If you insert a decimal tab stop by using Format - Paragraph - Tab Stops, you can specify a custom decimal separator (Note: The current language attribute is not considered). In both cases, the SvxTabStop object will not hold a value for the thousand separator. There's some code in Writer's text formatting, that sets the thousand separator to '.' if the decimal separator is ',' and vice versa. So the apostrophe used as a thousand separator for locale Germany (Switzerland) is not considered. The 'decent' fix for this issue would require to add a new member cThousandSep to SvxTabStop, add some UI to the Tab Stop dialog, the new member would have to be stored in the file (not sure if the file format has to be changed for this). However, what we could do for a quick fix is to change the text formatting code to accept both ',' and ''' as a thousand separator in case that '.' is the decimal separator. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
