Description GerardF 2011-08-31 09:27:26 UTC
LibreOffice 3.4.3 under Windows vista. (French UI)

Step to reproduce :
1. In cells A1 to A3, enter decimal number like
1,1
1,12
1,123
(comma is decimal separator in french)

2. Format > Cell > Numbers, format code :
0,???
Police : Courier New

Numbers are aligned with comma.

3. Save.

Re-open the file, format is loss.
replaced by 0,000

Can confirm the behavior with "0,???" in German and "0.000" with US English.

But why don't you use "#,###" which is the right placeholder? With this it works.

I don't know what the exact intention of the question mark is here.
Comment 2 Urmas 2013-05-01 03:19:47 UTC
Question mark is used for alignment at decimal separator.
Comment 3 Laurent BP 2014-12-30 11:30:48 UTC
