It may look like a small issue, but I think it isn’t:
To be able to use a comma as well as a decimal dot for values would make working with AxeEdit allot more convenient (at least for Axe Users without the US-Keyboard layout).
I.E. here in Europe the value 3.5 is written 3,5 and because of that there’s a comma in the keyboard layout for the right handed Numeric keypad and not a decimal point like in the US.
So if you want to type in a value in AxeEdit you can’t type it fluently without moving the hand. You have to jump and aim for the only dot on the keyboard located below the letters. Depending on the labeling and the light conditions there, it’s often very nerve-racking to differ the dot from the comma next to it, if you just want to change a value quickly.
I don’t know how many times I typed in a value on the Numeric keypad (using out of habit the ”,”) and the value shoots up to maximum value (maybe because in the US it’s used to visualize the 1000s)
So that looks like a dilemma, but nonetheless I’ve seen already software, where floating point number are always interpreted as such, whether you type in a decimal dot or comma. And I think a lot of Axe Users would be very happy, if Axe Edit is going to be such a peace of software.
