Description Pedro 2011-12-21 05:56:19 UTC 
When you have a cell with a repeating (or recurring) decimal the result of pressing the "Delete decimal" button depends on the number of non-decimal cases (or so it seems)

When the division is 1/3 or 10/3, pressing the "Delete decimal" button once will do nothing. Pressing a second time will round the number to the previous decimal case (as expected).

When the division is 100/3, pressing the "Delete decimal" button once will show ### (meaning the text doesn't fit the cell)

This is because instead of rounding the value to the previous _visible_ decimal case the value is rounded to the 9th decimal case (which is one less than the 10 cases used for calculations).

So in both situations pressing the button does unexpected things :)

This also occurs in LO 3.4.5RC1 and LOdev 3.5.0B1

I tried with 3,5 RC 1 -> ok

I can confirm that. Apparently someone fixed it and forgot to update the bug tracker.

Alternatively it might have been fixed by fixing "something else" which could mean that this bug may reappear in the future if that "something else" gets broken again.

I'm switching the Status to RESOLVED FIXED
