In preview mode, the NumericInput field uses the systems locale when the field is focused and english when the field has no focus. - Project properties - Perspective - Project locale: German - NumericEntryField with default settings - When the field has focus the displayed value is `12345,67` - When leaving the field with Enter or Tab the field displays `12,345.67` - Expected display value is `12.345,67` A client session in a browser shows the same behaviour and a label bound the `value` property shows `12345.67` ---

Hi, Thanks for the bug report. The numeric entry field was implemented with locales in mind from the start, with the intention that we would finish making the component locale aware once locales were fully implemented. Now that locales have been implemented, we plan to finish making the component locale aware when applying number formats. I have created a ticket to resolve this issue. Thanks again. -Yousuf ---

Hi @indenkleefj, This is on our list of things to do. We still have quite a few things that are a higher priority that are being addressed currently, but we’ll try to start working on it soon. I will let you know when we have a fix for it. ---

Hi @awalker, Currently, I’m using Ignition 8.0.12 but I still experience the same problem. Is there already a fix for this? ---

Is there a workaround to display numbers in a non english local format, at least in numeric fields and tables? I have a Perspective project ready for production since many months, but the correct number format is a must have. ---

Hi, Is there already a fix for this? I need to display a number in the currency format, but not the American one. ---
