AfPh & AfD:Measurement dialog textbox-no comma input

[catlover]

The measurement dialog textbox-input does not accept a comma as decimal separation, even though the measurements in Prefs are set to the metric system.
This happens in Photo as well as in Designer, MAS version & latest Beta versions.
As soon as the cursor gets near the decimal separation, which starts out as a comma,see video,  it changes into a point.
And no, there's no question of a typo ! .     I really did type in a comma. Keyboard set to US English, by the way.
It is especially noticeable when changing from metric to say, pixels, because in that case you practically always end up with decimals.
This might be by design , but it does seem a bit odd.
And it happens in ALL measurement textboxes.
Attached a little vid to show what I mean. 
Thanks for looking into it. C.L.

I have no idea how come this video is pasted twice.

Couldn't delete it, either.
Sorry about that !

It may be down to the OS System preferences, the default for Canada and US is to use the dot/period for the decimal. You can change it in System Preferences.

Thanks, OldBruce. I've got the OS prefs set to European, e.g. grouping point, decimal comma.
I haven't experienced similar problems with other graphical software.

Just did a test and works for me here I used the space for the grouping and a comma for the the decimal and it shows up in Designer.
