Weather Plus 4.5 14.09.2017 wind data incorrect
Dan Beaver
Hi,
I installed the new update and when I press NVDA+w the wind data is incorrect. I live in Lawrenceburg Kentucky and it says the wind is East Southeast at 435 mph. I can promise it isn't blowing that hard. ;-)) Thanks. Dan Beaver |

Hmmm, why not a decimal point instead of a comma? It would be more standard.

Hi Dan,
Damn, I know, but use the comma myself, many have
asked really.
We do so, let's put it to a vote.
comma yes or comma no?
If no one participates I'll leave the comma, after
all, separates only 2 decimal places.
Cheers
Adriano

Point as a decimal sepparator is only in anglo-saxonics countries, I suppose.

As far as I know, in Europe we use comma as a decimal sepparator.

Surely this should be picked up from the computer system settings, same as

Excel and similar applications do? Each locale has its settings for currency symbol, decimal separator, measurement units, etc. Using that simply means the weather add-on is always consistent with everything else on the machine.

Though I'm a decimal point person, I will vote for
what is most universal. I can adapt.

Hi Adriano,
I vote for the period or dot--not the comma. It was a period for years, who is asking for the comma? Is this standard notation in parts of the world outside North America?
