Description
Échec et Matt
2012-12-02 19:06:02 UTC
The effect is reproducible with "LibreOffice 3.6.5.2 " German UI/ French Locale [Build-ID: 5b93205] {pull date 2013-01-18} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit): 0. Launch LibO, modify locale settings as mentioned above. 1. Open new writer Document from LibO Start center 2. Menu 'Tools -> Language -> All Document -> French' 3. type Il est un "homme" mal becomes Il est un « homme » mal what might be ok, please see the automatically inserted blanks 4. type Il est l' "homme" mal becomes Il est l' »homme » mal please see the automatically inserted blanks and the wrong "»" There are some special punctuation rules in French language what differ from those in English and German Language, for example unbreakable spaces <http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponctuation#Les_espaces_autour_des_signes_de_ponctuation_.28r.C3.A8gles_actuelles.29> (French language text). How to use apostrophe and opening uqotation mark correctly, you can see (for example) on <http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostrophe_%28typographie%29#Aspect_de_l.E2.80.99apostrophe> in the first line of that paragraph: " définition d’« une virgule que l’on met un peu au dessus du mot » dès la première édition " Currently the only workaround seems to be to type a blank after the apostrophe and to delete that after having typed the opening quotation mark, see "Bug 38394 - EDITING: Can't insert a French opening quote after an apostrophe using AutoCorrection" I see the same in LibO 3.3.3, AOOo 3.4 ans Symphony, so this problem seems inherited from OOo. @Jean Baptiste: Any idea how this can be fixed?

See comment above!
I guess that ' and " are treated in the same way when the code has to decide if such key is an opening or a closing one. The problem is that I do not know where to look in the source code. Will ask Cédric. Best regards. JBF Hi Cédric, Do you have any idea how to fix this problem? Best regards. JBF Restricted my LibreOffice hacking area |
