Bug ID: 139051
Summary: Feedback: Text align based on numbers positional value
instead of just Left, Right or Center alignment.
FORMATTING
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.3.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Feedback for at least Libre Calc, but can likely be useful in Doc too.
(hopefully this form keeps the formatting here, otherwise it looks wired)
[] <-- data cells (read the underline as a space, just in case the formatting
is ruined).
Data example: (currently: right aligned (Ctrl+R), it's harder to read)
[____1,0_]
[_123,00_]
[_____12_]
[__1,001_]
My proposal is a new alignment that is based on the numbers positional value
instead, like this:
[___1,0___]
[_123,00__]
[__12_____]
[___1,001_]
As you can see, all "ones" numbers, and "tens" & "hundreds" numbers are lined
up, so it's easier to read & much harder to misread a numbers value (like
misreading 1,001 as 1001 instead).
Hope this is explained clearly enough, and it helps to improve Libre Calc.
Steps to Reproduce:
Not applicable.
I guess: Type random values in a column & try to align them.
Actual Results:

At row: "Data example:"...
Expected Results:

At row: "My proposal"...
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
