TFLoatSpinEdit is a joke?
« on: June 01, 2007, 01:57:01 pm »
Float numbers with coma ',' instead of dot '.' ?
Is it a joke?

Here in Brazil we use comma in non-integer numbers. And no, we don't consider this a joke.

I don't know how FloatSpin is currently implemented. In theory it should read the system's settings and find a adequate separator, but it may be hardcoded.

I think that in languages community the default separator is 'dot'. If I use this component, before reading its contents I need to change , ->. since lazarus does not understand ','. My comp settings are set to '.' so it seems as a bug rather that settings incompatibility.

There should be a sort of DecimalSeparator property for this component, I guess

there is one global DecimalSeparator variable in your app, which initially uses the value of your OS.
