Commas In Dimensions?

[Anonymous]

Hi, when i dimension i am getting annoying commas in the actual figure, how can i remove this?

I don't think you can.

Yes you can. In XP goto Control Panel/Regional and Language/Regional Options and get rid of comma there.

Thanks, it worked.

On the mac you used to be able to change the system prefs ( international) but last time I tried this didnt work.

Try This it works 1 525 instead of 1,525 etc. Hopefully it will be fixed in Lepoard discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=714859&tstart=0 but if you stufff it up call apple support not me

I followed the link to the thread at discussions.apple.com.

Very interesting info & a 'work-around' fix for the problem (I'm sure all archiCAD users will be very familiar with 'work-arounds'

The fix does replace the comma with a space in dimensions, but unfortunately, I've found that it also puts a space in place of a decimal point, so that decimalised input fields etc. read strangely eg. 100.00 would show in the input field as 100 00

When will Apple fix this...? (cos it's an OS X issue, not an ArchiCAD one) ...who knows...
