In every math calculation one uses numerical pad and if one set dot as `Decimal key on the numpad` it is expected to use it as symbol not just "character". To repeat - other software follow what is set in Windows settings as decimal symbol, but not LibreOffice. Right now we have nonsense - we must set Locale settings in Libre to English to use dot as decimal symbol, but Western default language to Serbian, due the spellcheck. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
