Hi,

is it possible to export to CSV using comma’s instead of dots?  
I’d like to make calculations on the CSV without having to change the dots to comma’s.

Thanks!

Currently, it is not possible to export to CSV using commas instead of dots as the decimal separator. We appreciate your suggestion and have added it to our list of ideas for future development. However, we cannot provide a specific timeline for this feature at the moment.

If you are using Excel, you can [configure it](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/change-the-character-used-to-separate-thousands-or-decimals-c093b545-71cb-4903-b205-aebb9837bd1e) to recognize dots as the decimal separator. While this may be inconvenient if you typically use commas, it is a workaround for now.
