Bug ID: 146440
Summary: UNO: Formula vs FormulaLocal: inconsistent cell
formatting
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.4.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: mikekagan...@hotmail.com
CC: er...@redhat.com
In a new spreadsheet, execute these macros:
Sub FormulaVsFormulaLocal
' Case 1. Comparing date values
oCell = ThisComponent.Sheets(0).getCellByPosition(0, 0)
oCell.Formula = "2021-12-27"
oCell = ThisComponent.Sheets(0).getCellByPosition(0, 1)
oCell.FormulaLocal = "2021-12-27"
' Case 2. Comparing boolean values
oCell = ThisComponent.Sheets(0).getCellByPosition(1, 0)
oCell.Formula = "TRUE"
oCell = ThisComponent.Sheets(0).getCellByPosition(1, 1)
oCell.FormulaLocal = "ИСТИНА" ' Note use of *localized* (ru) name for "TRUE"
' Case 3. Comparing string values
oCell = ThisComponent.Sheets(0).getCellByPosition(2, 0)
oCell.Formula = "'1"
oCell = ThisComponent.Sheets(0).getCellByPosition(2, 1)
oCell.FormulaLocal = "'1"
End Sub
Given that the initial format of all the cells is "Standard", I observe the
following result in Version: 7.2.4.1 (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 27d75539669ac387bb498e35313b970b7fe9c4f9
CPU threads: 12; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU); UI: en-US
Calc: CL
Case 1. Cell A1 is still formatted as Standard. It contains number 44557.
Cell A2 is formatted as Date (YYYY-MM-DD). It contains date 2021-12-27.
Case 2. Cell B1 is still formatted as Standard. It contains number 1.
Cell B2 is formatted as BOOLEAN. It contains value "ИСТИНА".
(Note that in other locales, the string in case 2 code should be modified
accordingly.)
Case 3. Cell C1 is formatted as Text (@). It contains string "1" (no
apostrophe).
Cell C2 is formatted as Standard. It contains string "'1" (apostrophe).
I suppose all cases should behave consistently, and the only difference should
be that Formula takes canonical representation, and FormulaLocal takes
localized strings as user may enter... Especially confusing is that case 3
reverses which cell takes new number format.
