I don't know how to report bugs, so I created this thread to do it. If there is any other process that I should follow, let me know.
The problem: I have configured Tracker to use commas as decimal separators, basically because I have to copy the data to an Excel file, which uses commas.
However, when I select the data from the table view (the table with numbers at the bottom-right corner) and copy it to anywhere else, despite commas being used in the table, it pastes it as dots.
This issue appeared in v.6. In the fifth version, the copied data used commas as expected.

Thanks for the bug report. I fixed this issue and have posted another updated "beta" tracker.jar on Tracker's home page. The link is in the Recent Tracker Versions section part way down on the left. Just copy the jar into your existing Tracker home (shown in About Tracker) and either rename it to tracker.jar to replace the existing, or choose it as the preferred jar in the Preferences. Doug
