Improvement: KML export and decimal mark #38

Open Smokey0815 opened 13 years ago

In Windows Inssider uses the decimal mark from the "region and language" settings when exporting to a KML file. Many countries use a comma instead of dot (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:DecimalSeparator.svg ), which results in an unusable KML file, because the coordinates are represented as comma separated values and the data itself contains commas.

Example KML line: <coordinates>xx,7065,xx,117413,123,4</coordinates> (not usable) instead of <coordinates>xx.7065,xx.117413,123,4</coordinates> (usable)

Workaround: Change the decimal mark to a dot in Windows' "language and region" settings.
