------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Jun 10 13:01:58 +0000 2010 ------- Hello, The only way I've found to modify the format for an existing numeric user field is to delete it and re-insert it with a different format setting. There is however an "Edit Fields" dialog accessible by double-clicking the field, and in this dialog the field format can be selected... but the new format seclected this way is not applied actually. This should be fixed. ---------------- Procedure: ---------------- - open new text document - insert numeric user field: - open Fields dialog box (Crtl-F2) - select tab Variables (last but one) - select User Field in left Type list (last one) - select a numerical format (e.g. -1234.12) - enter some variable name (e.g. MyVar) and value (e.g. 3.14159) - click on Insert - close Fields dialog box - double-click the field text in the document - this opens the "Edit Fields: Variable" dialog box - try to modify the numeric format for the field: - select another Format on the right (e.g. 1234) - click Ok ---------------- Problem : ---------------- The format is not changed... I haven't tried if this is also the case with other types of fields (baybe not only for user fields). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
