[OASIS Issue Tracker] (OFFICE-3860) Extend specification of number of decimal digits in number formatting

[OASIS Issues Tracker <workgroup_mailer@lists.oasis-open.org>]

    [ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OFFICE-3860?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=59915#comment-59915 ] 

Andreas Guelzow  commented on OFFICE-3860:
------------------------------------------

I think what we still need is a clear description how number:decimal-places and number:min-decimal-places interact and how they specify the formatting of the number. Before this change  number:decimal-places gave the number of decimal places used. With this change it apparently becomes the maximum number of decimal places shown while number:min-decimal-places is the minimum number of decimal places shown and within these limits trailing zeros are omitted. (At least that is what I think you are talking about).

> Currently the number:number element use a single attribute number:decimal-places to specify the number of decimal digits to be used. This means that formats such as "0.00#" (specified here using the Excel number format syntax) cannot be translated into ODF without the use of conditional formatting.
> I would propose to add an attribute to allow for formats of this type.
