Will fix now.

Created attachment 80359 [details]
change the decimal for a period instead of a coma for decimal separator, as well as coma instead of period of thousand separator

This breaks the build.
If you change the decimal and thousand separator you have to change the number format, too:

<FormatElement msgid="FixedFormatskey5" default="false" type="medium" usage="FIXED_NUMBER"  formatindex="4">
<FormatCode>#.##0,00</FormatCode>
<DefaultName></DefaultName>
</FormatElement>

the format code #.##0,00 has point as ThousandSeparator and
comma as DecimalSeparator, while

> > +<ThousandSeparator>,</ThousandSeparator>
> > +<DecimalSeparator>.</DecimalSeparator>

> Wrong separator por thousands and decimal, it must be comma for thousand
> separator and dot for decimal separator like Mexican locale settings

The Mexican locale references the Dominican Republic locale, in LC_CTYPE; in LC_FORMAT it should do the same (replacing the currency) so that it takes its number formats.

@neosergio: I'll commit this fix, so that people can build. Please try on a nightly build if all locale setting are as expected.

You're welcome.
Could you verify with a build from the build bot? They are located at http://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/
In the "Revision" column, make sure the number is equal or greater than 1452033
Today you'll find Windows, and Linux 32/64 bit build (Result = green).

@Ariel Constenla-Haile
I just test the fix with the build 1452047, and it works.

Best Regards

Hi Andrea please send me the attachment that has to be fix, i am not techincian but a friend can look at it.

Hi Paola, it is not an attachment but a configuration that we can fix from a technical point of view, but that we need confirmation for.

The issue is:
- Can you confirm that when writing the number 12345678 according to the Peruvian habits it is more natural to write 12,345,678 (comma) rather than 12.345.678 (dot)?
- Can you confirm that when writing the number 1.2345678 according to the Peruvian habits it is more natural to write 1.2345678 (dot) rather than 1,2345678 (comma)?

Andrea:

Please check my friend just send me the confirmation:

In Peru you write: 123 456.78

If it doesn't work let me know to tell her.


Paola




se escribe asi 123 456.78
de esa manera en en peru
prueba sino me avisas estre en line

Thank you for the confirmation. So the decimal point bugfix is actually right and it will appear in OpenOffice 4.0.

Setting FIXED as per discussion above.
