Why can't I set decimal seaarators to anything but a comma.
Is this a BricsCAD bug, or do I have to set some variable ??
In the drawing explorer, I set the dimension decimal separator to a dot but when I draw a dimension it still appears as a comma. If I go back to the drawing explorer it says it's a dot.
Currently my only workaround is to create dimensions styles in another cad package and copy them into BricsCAD.
I have tried changing the decimal separator to other symbols, but still only get a comma.

Setting the Decimal Separator option in the dimension styles works for me, always has. Are you starting your drawings from the default template or a custom template?

It works for me here by editing in the Properties Palette.
Changing separator worked once in Drawing Explorer.
(There was 1 "Standard" Style + 1 >overrides in standard<)
The second time, switching back to previous separator needed
a changing/reassignment of the Style, before the change was
visible in my Dimension.0 -

Very curious.
Thanks. Now I know everything is working fine in BricsCAD itself. It is just an issue do do with my drawings.

Now I've just got to figure out how do delete overrides.
