The default behaviour of the 'caption' feature is to place the
category text ('illustration') after the numbering symbol (arabic

the numbering symbol?

Readers,
According to the specification for openformula (see:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part2.html),
the syntax for the function 'sum' is:
SUM( { NumberSequenceList N }+ )
e.g. SUM(a1+b2)
However in calc the function:
=a1+b2
still produces a correct result.
