Yes its only when i use it as a calculator...
When i do have to use it as a calculator, it usually has to work fast and,
with allot typing in different numbers.
When i hit the key below "number 3" on the numeric keyboard, i get a comma
and not a period... to get a period i have to go to the main part on the
keyboard... like i said, just a little issue, thats a little annoying.
Anything that can be done?
excuse me... but i have seen it before in a very few pieces of software, and
to me it just seems to be lazy design/programming. (sorry)
Again, i don't know anything about javacode, or other types of programming,
but i love little genius software like DQSD.

It's the same here in Sweden.
You see, what you're entering into the search bar (provided you mean when
you use it as a calculator) is actually JavaScript code.
If you type:
25 + 9 / 3 * 3.14
the search bar responds with
34.42
As this is just a JavaScript expression and JavaScript always expresses
floating point numbers in a locale-invariant manner, there's no built-in
facility for localized numerics.
Then again, I guess we could preprocess every numeric expression replacing
"<decimal separator of your choice>" with "." before evaluating the
expression.
To me it just seems counter-intuitive, but maybe that's because I know
what
it does, so I expect the locale-invariant behavior.
