General: Changing the default decimal point character

Hello all,

 

how can I change the character used to represent the decimal point in acuConsole? The problem is, for example, when I run Generate Mesh from acuConsole and create the files in CAD.DIR, the non-manifold model file is created, but all coordinates in there use a comma ',' as decimal point symbol. Starting acuMeshSim afterwards leads to an error:

acuMeshSim: <SIMM_ERR_MSG>:Code: 104 String: Bad data encountered in file unknown

 

When I manually change all the commas to points in the .smd file, I get a non-matching checksum error (obviously).

 

Anyone had that problem or know how to solve it? I am running under Linux (english).

 

Thanks,

Bjoern
