Hello
i'm wondering if I can set only text in a csv as a datasource for Ttile/XAML

-0,88 is shown as -0,88 (it's OK)
1,12 is shon as 112 (should be 1,12)
1,10 is shon as 110 (should be 1,10)
1.10 is shown as 1,1 (should be 1.10)

how can I manage, that "," is "," and "." is "." (comma is comma and dot is dot) in Numbers?


in the CSV I have
"-0,88","1,12","1,10","1.10"
also öäüÖÄÜé and so on are wrong after import of a csv datasource

Numbers should be in the tilte as they are in the csv

any suggetions?

file has to be saved with UTF-8 encoding

i don't think you are allowed the quotes

is related to your language settings

Hi

the very first time, I imported the datasource, it works with the äöü and so on

the I saved the CSV (original generated with notepad) with Excel and the umlauts are wrong

from this moment, I can save they as I want, no success

quotes are not the problem
same issue with and without quotes
and I need the quotes because the seperator "," is also in the text

language setting is set to german and it's not possible to change beause other programs will only work with this settings.

Is there any chance to import numbers as text (like excel does it)?

New Question

I have one title for names. If the name (with space inside) is longer then the field, I get two lines
is there any way, to truncate the name (like it is done if there is no space in the source)

I don’t do much with Datasources in vMix. But Notepad has a history of breaking other document lists by adding its own formatting. Notepad++ is a great editor that will respect your original formatting.
