Hi Johann, I hope you don't mind me forwarding this nice work of yours to our main development mailing list, to let other interested developers know of your work. Let me also CC Noel since he's done a very similar work for 3.6. There may be some overlap between his work and yours...
Anyways. We're very glad to see that you took interest in hacking LibreOffice/OpenOffice. Let us know if you are interested in making other improvements in the future! Best, Kohei >>> Johann Messner <johann.mess...@jku.at> 07/06/12 8:44 AM >>> Dear Mr. Yoshida, some weeks ago I implemented fill-in character support in LibreOffice 3.5.3 on my Ubuntu 12.04 (i686) box. Now I would like to announce this to the people taking care of the LibreOffice development. I saw in the http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/msg05149.html your signature, which reads: Kohei Yoshida, LibreOffice hacker, Calc <kyosh...@novell.com> Well, perhaps the enclosed "code piece" is of interest for you being "LibreOffice hacker, Calc" ;-) Initially there was a feature request, or let's name it a call for help: How to specify a "fill-in character" in Calc's NumberFormat definitions? Please see http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=49086 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=23839 And in comment 15: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=23839#c15 I proposed a solution (actually it is more a hack than a solution) Please have a look at it and hopefully we will see fill-in character support in a future release of LO ;-) Please continue with your good work on improving Calc! best regards, hans messner _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
