Calc : Activated look for the formats (money, percent...)
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:12:27 UTC
When you add attributes like "bold" to a paragraph or to characters the button looks activated if you put your cursor on the paragraph/characters in bold. Currently, if a format (money/percent/standard) is activated in a cell, the button does not look activated. We could have a similar behaviour like the bold property : See the attached mockup

IMHO not necessary as a currency formatted cell will show currencys on entering a number. Also most of the people will not have a look at the toolbar before typing a number into a cell. But it's not my decission so re-assigned to requirements. Frank
In fact this was a proposal made by an attendee during an "OOo lesson". I quite agree with him that this would make the UI more explicit (which is never bad for users). As I suppose (maybe I am wrong) that this must not be too difficult to be done, it would be a small but nice improvement.
