Re: Decimal separator characters

 

I wouldn't say it's rare. I have Kicad set to English language, so it displays ".", but numeric keyboard on my system puts ",".

I think we can close it for now.

The patch only addresses one side of the issue (accepting a ‘.’ in a ‘,’ locale), but the opposite (typing a ‘,’ in a ‘.’-locale) is probably extremely rare.

Cheers,
Jeff.

I guess this is addressed with Michaels patch in that bug, or are there still any open questions?

    We had a discussion a while back about local-specific decimal
    characters in which JP made the point that we don’t have any use
    for thousands separators, and so we might as well accept either
    separator (. or ,).

    I *thought* at the time that it was mentioned that Kicad already
    did this, but I can’t find any evidence of it (certainly not in
    libEval).

    Am I looking in the wrong place?

    If not, do we want to make this change?  (It would be a very
    simple change in libEval.)

    Cheers,
    Jeff.
