Bug ID: 133805
Summary: default csv separator location specific
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.4.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
in many european countries the decimal separater is a comma, not a dot.
therefor the default CVS separator character is a semicolon. it can be set in
libreoffice calc in a quite hidden way, described e.g. here:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/201076/csv-default-separator/
Tools -> Options - LibreOffice -> Advanced - Button: Open Expert Configuration
and search for FieldSeparator
it would be nice if LC_NUMERIC or LC_MONETARY is something non english to use
semicolon as default.
second advantage is that this then would be more compatible with microsoft
excel, and also be more compatible with public upload APIs in europe.
