Description ftack 2007-04-19 13:11:29 UTC 
This is an issue that probably is as old as the first versions of Staroffice,
and besides it is not a fundamental issue. Nevertheless I feel it is worth
mentioning it and it probably can be fixed easily if it is being considered valid.

In OOo.Calc, Tools - Options - OOo.Calc, Calculate, the "Decimal Places" option
does not belong under Calculate. This option just affects the (default) display
of numbers and thus belongs under View.

Yet I have also a more fundamental concern with the way the default view is 
handled in OOo Calc, but I will file this as a separate issue.

reassigning features and enhancements to user requirements@openoffice.org which
will be the default owner for those tasks (was introduced some time ago)

Current versions of OOo handle default numbers a lot better. Options "Precision
as shown" and "Limit decimals for general number formats" more clearly connect
between calculation precision and what is displayed.
