Thousand Separator and Decimal Separator

Hi!!! I'm writing from Spain. I'm having problems with decimal separator and thousand separator. Here in Spain, decimal separator is a comma and thousand separator is a point. But PowerBi goes wrong,...

    Natxo The screenshot looks correct to me, the thousands separator is "." and decimal is ","

     

    What are you expecting?

Here's a dilemma.

 

Locale settings in Power BI Desktop is in my local language where we have "." for thousand seperator and "," for decimals.

 

The default setting in Google Chrome is English which means that when I publish reports to the web, locals will see commas where there should be dots and vice versa. 

 

If I change the language settings in Chrome to my local language as first language, it works fine.

However I shouldn't have to change the settings. The published report should simply use the locale settings from Power BI Desktop

 

Does anyone have any work-around for this that doesn't require any changes to the browsers in use ?

Hi guys, is this problem again appearing on the new update of Power BI (August 2019)?
