[esp-r] Re: ESP-r (editing of initial room size)

[R- Theru]

Hello,
I had the same problem initially. The reason is indeed your computer's regional 
settings. If the standard decimal symbol for Portugal is a comma, ESP-r won't 
accept dot separated decimals. Even if you enter data with comma as a decimal 
symbol, ESP-r will still not accept it.
You don't have to change the region on your system, just the decimal symbol 
under Control Panel>Regional Settings>Customize  (at least for Windows systems).
Hope this helps!

A user sent a screen shot with an editing dialog...

This is the first report of a vertex editing not accepting information after the 
dot.  This task was recently
done on several different machine types so it might be something related to your 
specific computer.

We notice that the email address is Portugal - double check that your computer 
LOCALLE is set to a region where
the decimal place is a dot rather than a comma.

It is not clear from the image what operating system you are using `or what 
version of ESP-r you are
using (such information would be very helpful).

And there are several facilities available in ESP-r to allow you to modify a 
room which is not the
correct size - look in the 'transforms' option in either the 'surface list' menu 
or you can edit
the xyz values of the coordinates in the 'vertices' menu.  You can see ideas 
about this in
the ESP-r Cookbook.

Dear Mr! <mailto:jeremy at esru.strath.ac.uk>

I’m learning how to work with ESP-r to use it in further simulations’ research 
but there is a problem right at the beginning. The input dimensions, as you can 
see in the attached file, was 5.500 3.350 2.700. In this case I’ve just changed 
the default values (5.000 3.000 2.700). The results became 5.0000 3.0000 2.0000. 
I’ve tried several different ways to introduce the geometry that I wanted, but 
the results were always the same. It seems that the program doesn’t accept of a 
number that are right from the dot. Can you help me about this?

Thank you.

Sincerely yours,
