Hello. I absolutely love WYGIWYH! Thank you for your work =)

In Germany and I guess other countrys as well the decimal seperator and thousands seperator is switched. So we use 1.234,56 instead of 1,234.56. It would be nice to be able to set the decimal seperator and thousands seperator in the settings, because it's extremely annoying to use another separater as one is used to.

Yes! I was looking into this before your issue actually. Turns out this is way more complicated than it should be imo.
Hopefully I can get it out on the next update.

Faster than expected. v0.7.6 adds a option on the Settings menu to override the number format. It supports Dot-Comma and Comma-Dot notation which should cover most if not all user cases.

This doesn't override some numbers like charts and the sum when selecting transactions, because they are formatted on the browser and should already follow your country/locale standards.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Hey. Works great, thank you!

I would love to help translate to German, but I never did anything like that before. So you would have to help me out by providing me a link to a guide or tell me what to do.

@CocaCola2701 thank you for taking interest, I've written up a small guide on #92, there's a lot of strings, but most are very similar or single words.
