            Bug ID: 93951
           Summary: Changing a formula calculation to include § causes
                    truncation
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.0.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org

If you accidentally add § into a formula will cause the rest of the formula to
be erased.  This is specially annoying in keyboard layouts where § is next to 1
so it is easy to hit by accident.

How to reproduce/example:
In all you should enter a calculation formula in a cell and see that it
produces the expected value and that when you click on it the edit bar shows
the right formula. I will use =2*2*2 as example in the following.

First example:
Change the middle 2 to a § producing =2*§*2 and press enter. You get the
expected Err:501 as cell value, but going back to edit you see =2* in the edit
box, so everything starting from § was truncated.

Expected behavior: Have =2*§*2 in the edit box so could change the § into the
meant 1


Second example:
Undo or type in =2*2*2 again to reset for next:
Change the first 2 to a § producing =§*2*2 and press enter. You get the
expected Err:501 as cell value, but going back to edit you see Err:501 in the
edit box, so everything including the = was truncated.

Expected behavior: Have =§*2*2 in the edit box so could change the § into the
meant 1

Third example:
Type in directly a new formula =§*2*2 and press enter. You get the expected
Err:501 as cell value, but going back to edit you see Err:501 in the edit box,
so everything including the = was truncated.

Expected behavior: Have =§*2*2 in the edit box so could change the § into the
meant 1
