Bug ID: 156653
Summary: Add Autocorrect Localised option to choose what
formats are/not understood as dates
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.4.7.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Autocorrect changes both 6-2 and 6/2 to a date.
In my case, I never enter dates with hyphens but do enter this as a text
option. I would like to avoid having to remember to add a preceding, single
quote each time.
I would like to stop Autocorrect from interpreting this as an entered date
format.
Confusingly I do sometimes use hyphens as date format separators (handy in
filenames!) but when entering dates, I never do.
I understand that there are workarounds such as setting cell format to 'Text'
or switching off Autocorrect altogether, but this is to generate a conversation
about the flexibility of Autocorrect options.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter none date text that looks elsewhere as a date and Autocorrect will
'Autodecorrect' it to a date
Actual Results:
6-2 becomes a date such as 2023/02/06
Expected Results:
6-2 is left as 6-2
6/2 becomes a date such as 2023/02/06
Reproducible: Always
