Bug ID: 167387
Summary: Writer changes date format when saving
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.0.0 alpha0+ master
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
The ISO date format is yyyy-mm-dd
It is what I prefer as well, because it makes sorting more intuitive and not as
ambiguous as the US format mm/dd/yyyy (e.g. what is 12/09/2025?)
It appears that the date field inserted is changed to US format
Steps to Reproduce:
1.insert docinformation:modified field into document
2.select ymd format
3.save document
open document
Actual Results:
date has changed to mdy format
Expected Results:
format set should be persistent
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
