Currency sign picked up on client machine

Classic Servoy
1

Hi guys,

I’ve got a format on my field displaying price - ¤#.00 - and I thought it would pick up the system currency sign from the server machine, whether it’s a dollar sign or pound or whatever.
However, it’s picking up the currency from the client machine.
Are there configuration settings that I could tweek?

Cheers,
Maria

The locale of the smart client is used for that.
Currently we don’t have a way to specify another currency then the locale of the user,
You could make a case so that we can support it through the formatter (so it is specific to the element using that format) or by setting the global default under the i18n node.

It’s webclient, Johan.

when using ¤ , it aways uses the locale of the client machine (even in web browser). If you want it to change by server type, then use an i18n key for it.
