Priority: medium
Bug ID: 77951
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: FORMATTING: Enhancement Request - Specify significant
figures, not just decimal places.
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.3.2 release
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
Have the option to display a specified number of significant figures instead of
number of decimal places. And carry it forward in calculations. For example one
may input a list of data (ex 120, 34.567, 0.890) and want to display all of
them with the same number of significant figures (say 3). This would require
changing the number of decimal places for each cell which is impractical for
large datasets. This could be extended to calculations where adding or
multiplying figures would output a value with the correct number of significant
figures (ex 0.10 * 10. = 1.0)
This enhancement would be useful for scientific data where significant figures
are important and need to be tracked.
