I agree with your opinion, just a heads up there is a workaround, put this in: # ### ### ### ### ### ### ### that should cover any number you're using. Marking this as an enhancement request though, it's a valid point. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + LibreOffice is powered by a team of volunteers, every bug is confirmed (triaged) by human beings who mostly give their time for free. We invite you to join our triaging by checking out this link: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage There are also other ways to get involved including with marketing, UX, documentation, and of course developing - http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/. Lastly, good bug reports help tremendously in making the process go smoother, please always provide reproducible steps (even if it seems easy) and attach any and all relevant material Thanks for your understanding Joel, I will use your workaround meanwhile! I am sorry to report that the workaround doesn't work because all the spaces are included in the number string, regardless if thousands separators are needed at all. That is, for a format string "# ###", the number 1 is represented as " 1". I have seen that in bug #51008 a fix has been implemented, and it consists only of setting the correct thousands separator as the locale's (matching language and country) thousands separator. Although I think one should be able to select a space (as much as a period or a comma) as language separator, regardless of the locale specifications, I request that in the meantime the space character is set as the default language separator for locale es_CR (Spanish in Costa Rica). For other users interested in this issue, as a workaround you can set your cells' format language to Esperanto, Estonian or Portugal Portuguese, and you will get a space for thousands separator.
