DecimalPointCharacter
Summary Determines which will be used to indicate decimal places
when a formatted value is displayed as a scalar number .
For example, if this property is set to the period character,
scalar values with decimal places would be displayed as
follows: 100.34, 78.4, 99.6, and so on. This applies to format
specifications that use the %f symbol in their text format
specification, such as SNVT_temp#US:
text("%f", *1.8+32(0:855))
You can use the DecimalPointCharacterSource property to
determine how the DecimalPointCharacter property should
be filled in.
