Bug ID: 171165
Summary: Byte Position Functions count characters with unicode
point greater than U+FFFF as 4 bytes
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.8.0.0 alpha0+ master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Documentation

LibreOffice can handle characters with Unicode points greater than U+FFFF.
Those are e.g. from block "Emotions" the "SLIGHT FROWNING FACE" at U+1F641 🙁 or
from block "Miscellancous Symbols And Pictographs" the "CLOUD WITH RAIN" at
U+1F327 🌧 or from block "Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols" the "MATHEMATICAL
DOUBLE-STRUCK CAPITAL A" at U+1D538 𝔸.
These characters are counted with 4 bytes in the byte positions functions, e.g.
in LENB(). This information is missing in the documentation.
This affects the help itself and the corresponding Wiki pages. For the Wiki it
could perhaps been added to
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Template:Documentation/Calc_Functions/byte_position_function_information
