Bug ID: 163536
Summary: The decimal indicater for numeric values in South
Africa must be a comma
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.2.1 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]

In South Africa the comma is used as decimal in numeric values. In version
24.2.5.2 (X86_64) I could use a comma as decimal in these cases but in version
24.8.2 I the decimal is displayed as a dot.
Here is an extract from the "Guide for the Use of the International System of
Units (SI)" as applicable in South Africa (Country 27):
With the publication of South African Government Notice R.1146 on 5 June 1974
the comma became the only recognized decimal indicator in South Africa for all
numbers, including amounts of money. For numbers smaller than 1 a zero must
precede the decimal indicator.
Can this issue be corrected?
