Drafting: Decimal character in Number-formatted table cells.
Drafting: Decimal character in Number-formatted table cells.
(OP)
Hi all,
xp 64, nx 6.
I have a tabular note, edited "Using Spreadsheet", which consists mainly of exprval() functions retrieving values from parts in the assembly. These come back as text to the table with no control over decimal precision. In NX, if I highlight cells, open the cell style dialog and change the format to "numeric", I can set the number of decimal places, but the decimal separator changes to a comma. (i.e. 2.12313423 in text becomes 2,34). I've checked the obvious places, but I can't find the setting which controls this, can anyone help?

Preferences -> Annotation...
...and select the 'Units' tab. You will find that the very first 'option' offers you the choice of having the 'Decimal Point Character is Period' or the 'Decimal Point Character is Comma'.
