          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 70262
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Time formatting for adding times > 24 h
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.1.2.3 rc
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

This is a more specific issue than 65267. When I set up a table adding HH:MM:SS
and the total goes beyond 24 hours, the totals are now unpredictable. Previous
versions (and I think Excel) will allow hour totals greater than 24. This
appears to be a change in version 4. 

I realize there is the work-around, sort-of to use the number and integer part
and fractional part, but it worked the way I described in version 3.

Why would one want more than 24 hours in time? Well, ask the U.S. Public
Broadcasting Service: They had a 30-hour clock to accommodate timezones across
the USA. In my case, I am recording total hours of lectures that I am
digitizing for archives. Each lecture may be an hour and a half and one box of
tapes might contain 33 hours of lectures (for example).
