Bug ID: 148700
Summary: Changing locale doesn't adapt page margins or
measurements unit (from CM to Inch)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Changing locale doesn't adapt page margins or measurements unit (from CM to
Inch)
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch LibreOffice on EU system (default settings a based on system locale)
2. Go to tools -> options -> Language settings -> Language
3. Change interface language to English & Locale to English VS
4. Apply and restart (to be sure)
5. Open Writer again
6. Format -> Page -> Notice margin being notated in CM and still being 2 cm (it
should be 0,75 inch by default)
Actual Results:
Still CM instead of Inch and margins are incorrect too.
Expected Results:
The locale set on first launch. If you 'correct' / change it afterward settings
should match locale.. (or some dialog asking you want to change that too).
Still having to change other area's manually is pretty unpractical. (say you're
testing bug 148698)
And regarding to margins:
Option A: Should follow locale
Option B: should follow the picked paper format. If you pick letter format, you
likely want letter margins...
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
