V Stuart Foote <vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu --- Comment #9 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu> --- Agree with OP the "US English" is a rather unclear label to indicate handling of decimal mark formatting for import of source CSV. But, the GUI drop-down list of columnar type Text import parsing filters in SCSTR_COLUMN_USER has been that way since early in OOo. The action of the GUI sets a parsing filter for Decimal Mark as decimal point -- as in English language usage (US & British Commonwealth), helping those locals where Decimal Mark defaults to a decimal comma. The label should probably reflect that. So would agree that a change in label from "US English" -> "Point - Decimal Mark" would be clearer UI. =-ref-= http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/src/scstring.src And though not currently supported by filter, IMHO adding a "Comma - Decimal Mark" might be appropriate as a new enhancement, to handle data coming the opposite direction. And in this vein, one could make the argument of a need to filter import UniCode CSV text of other positional numeral systems, i.e. Indic, Eastern Arabic, Hindi, and some of the CTL and CJK encoded texts. But think that would be another much more ambitious enhancement. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
