Description hossein.ir 2009-01-23 19:45:56 UTC

When I use "Context" option in Language Settings>Complex Text
Layout>Numerals>General Options>Numerals, I expect to see Hindi numerals in
Arabic and Farsi text, and Arabic numerals for other scripts.
Right now, for all scripts Arabic numerals is used. Below you can see a full
description:

Reference number in text:
a. Arabic -> Hindi numerals should be used but this not happens right now.
b. Farsi -> Hindi numerals should be used but this not happens right now.

Reference number before footnote/endnote itself:
a. Arabic -> Hindi numerals should be used, but this not happens right now for
empty footnotes.
b. Farsi -> Hindi numerals should be used, but this not happens right now. For
non-empty footnotes, it's because of issue 98399.

I think it's better to use the direction of the footnote text for choosing
between Hindi and Arabic numerals for Reference number before footnote/endnote.
Otherwise there would be many situations to discuss.

It seems that the idea of this is somehow complicated. Word 2003 had the same
problem that was fixed in Word 2007.

Trying to fix for OOo 3.1

Comment 4 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2009-01-30 10:07:57 UTC

fix in progress in cws swftnnumbers

add dependency to issue 98399

Comment 5 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2009-01-30 10:30:09 UTC

Because it is not clear, if this fix will be integrated into OOo 3.1, I need a
cws, which based on DEV300m40. Thus, the fix will be integrated into cws
swftnnumbers02

Comment 6 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2009-01-30 12:45:03 UTC

fixed in cws swftnnumbers02 - changed files:
/sw/source/core/text/inftxt.hxx,
/sw/source/core/text/porfld.cxx,
/sw/source/core/text/porftn.hxx,
/sw/source/core/text/txtftn.cxx,
revision 267195

Comment 7 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann 2009-02-02 08:46:20 UTC

OD->SBA: Checked in internal installation set of cws swftnnumbers02 - please verify.

Note: Consider that fix for issue 98399 needs to be integrated to get the
footnote numbers correct for Farsi language

Comment 8 stefan.baltzer 2009-02-04 11:37:54 UTC

Verified in CWS swftnumbers02.
