Feature: automatic enter of a decimal point at a fixed position
Hello all, I have been asked on Facebook, and I found a forum thread if there is a feature that interprets the entry of numbers the last 2 numbers as digits. So if you enter 1234 calc will enter 12.34 in the cell. This is good for accountants to enter a lot of numbers. (Need to think less, which I appreciate when I have to do a lot repeated tasks.) Excel does this with some complicated menu. I could not find any feature or extension. Adding this as a extension sounds great to me and this sounds not to complicated. I would go for # a extension config which sets up the digits to be moved. # a button to toggle the feature # a small macro that divides by the setup amounts if the cell is overwritten. (don't know if this definition can be used) Any Ideas, or inputs? Does LO maybe have done this? (I could not find any hints.) How we could take care the extension gets translated? (we = community, I do not think this needs to be an ASF extension.)

Re: Testing for UI faults of 4.1.10-RC2 on common linux systems
Known issue. I am totally sure, but the Issue is our code. Maybe here: http://opengrok.openoffice.org/xref/aoo419/main/vcl/unx/gtk/gdi/salnativewidgets-gtk.cxx?r=13a3daf1#3623 We look for adwaita theme or blueprint amd do some wired stuff.

I have seen UI problems in the past, and am beginning to think it is Ubuntu specific, but that is a very early theory. Basically I want to do a comprehensive test, to ensure that the root cause is identified and eliminated. Thus far have only tested on Linux Mint 20.1 Mate and MX 19.4 XFCE and Fluxbox. MX 19.4 is based on Debian, and looks awesome, no problems. Going to focus my testing on the various Ubuntu based systems, and see if they have the same issue. Linux Mint is faulty, which is a shame being a common (guessing) Linux distribution. This is the UI issue in LM 20.1 MATE using any of the 33 'Mint-Y' themes (which is the system default ) It does not occur with the Mint-X themes, as shown below; This is very early days, and is a WIP. -- This is the Way! http://www.apache.org/theapacheway/index.html
