Android Question Regional Settings For Number Format

[Kostas_Bar]

Hello everyone!

I have an EditText field with the keyboard set to DECIMAL_NUMBERS. I want to take the input as float and place it in a JSON.
I need the decimal point to be a "," (European style) instead of "." (USA style).
The "," cannot be pressed now at all.
I ve seed this solution, but it doesnt work with the interface.
I want the user to be able to use "," instead of "." and not just change the input afterwards.
I thought that perhaps there is a regional setting to fix that. If not is there another way??

Thanks in advance.

There are better options such as B4XFormatter.

You can set the allowed characters with IME.SetCustomFilter: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...-keyboard-with-the-ime-library.14832/#content
Though the exact behavior depends on the keyboard app so it won't be 100% reliable.
