When I type coma "," on my numeric keyboard it shows as dot "."
I need to read numbers as e.g. 12,50 so now I need to press the "," key next to "M" key.
How can I adjust the key next to "0" to type comma "," ?
Changing the number format in language settings is not the option for me.
MacBook, macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)
I believe the majority of regions/languages use a . (dot) on the numeric keyboard. This is certainly the case for both the US and UK keyboard layouts. However I do know that the French keyboard layout uses a comma instead.
It would therefore seem that you have the wrong keyboard layout selected. To correct this go to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Input Sources. It will list the currently enabled keyboard layouts on the left. If needed add the French type that matches your situation. (There is more than one to choose from.)
You may find it useful to also turn on the 'Show keyboard and emoji viewers in menu bar' option which is in System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard. You can then when testing turn on the Show Keyboard Viewer and see a picture on screen of the keyboard layout you have active.

With the Ukelele app
http://scripts.sil.org/ukelele
it takes a few minutes to create modified keyboard layout which you then install in your system.
Does shift or option on the key next to "0" produce ","?
Are you able to install a custom input source?
Hi, try System Preferences > Language & Region>Advanced>General.
I think it depends wht App you're using, like it should work in Numbers I think.

I am new to Mac, but I can learn quickly ;-)
I am using ABC extended keyboard, and I am not going to change that, because of some other layouts I prefer. the only thing is that comma vs dot thing that bothers me.
This one might work (not sure as I don't have a big keyboard)
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!
This is awesome! you made my day!
I owe you a beer. once you come to Slovakia, just let me know ;-)
best
