Hi,
I have bought new iMac with Yosemite system and switched from Excel to Numbers.
I have Apple's numeric pad keybord. Unfortunately, I dont know how to change the input of the "dot" key on the number pad, so that I get a comma in Numbers sheet, which would allow me to use decimals when working with numbers.
Cheers
Mike
iMac with Retina 5K display, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
The opposite plagued me for a while and soled the issue today, just had to change to the ABC - Extended Keyboard.
After that the dot finally is a dot when i type it.
Bye bye comma 😝

Hi Mike,
Lucky you with a numeric keypad. I wish I had one 🙂.
Are there any settings in System Preferences > Keyboard?
Perhaps the Input Sources Tab may help.
You can also get there from System Preferences > Language & Region > (set your preferences, then click on the Keyboard Preferences button).

Ian.
Yeah, thanks Yellobox, it was System Pref > Language > Advanced and there I had to change Number Separators from , to .
Now the Numbers are transforming the dot into coma after I complete filling in the cell with decimal number.
Cheers mate!
Hi Mike,
A lucky guess by me! Glad it worked for you. Thanks for the green tick and feedback. The feedback will help other users.
