Changing currency and localization
Happy New Year!
There is a way define country defaults different from the language. It's by setting user.language and user.country in the JVM.
On Mac:
- open the content of /Application/ProjectLibre
- in Content directory and replace in Info.plist:
<key>JVMOptions</key>
<array>
</array>
<key>JVMOptions</key>
<array>
<key>-Duser.language=fr</key>
<key>-Duser.country=US</key>
</array>
- if locale has been set in ~/.projectlibre/projectlibre.conf (not the case by default) the line has to be removed. This is to avoid overriding JVM settings.
Note that it will affect all the other settings in date, time, number formating...
Also I've notice when Laurent tested in the French case that strangely instead of using "$" for currency it uses "USD" .
Changing Currency Symbol
Hi, I have checked all my computer local settings (Australia). Before I updated to the recent version I had the dollar sign but now have the pound symbol. How do I change it back to dollar symbol. I am using PC not Mac. I tried a lot of stuff listed last year but no good. cheers

Hi OB, sorry to be a pain,
Hi OB, sorry to be a pain, however I have tried looking for the forums. When I click on the search symbol on the website, it just asks for site content or user, no search box. I have looked through hundreds of posts page by page but cant find a "change currency". All my system settings are set locally. I have no problem with any other program, it recognises my location. Can you send me a link to a forum that works for this problem please. cheers
Resource's availability in the Resource Histogram becomes 200%!
Hi,
I'm using ProjectLibre 1.6.2 with Traditional Chinese on Win7 and I found that as long as I click the 'Zoom In' button on Resource view, all resources' availability (the black line) in the Resource Histogram becomes 200% from 100% (see picture below)! Is there a fix for this? Thanks.

New dropdown option to change language, country and date format
ProjectLibre 1.9.3 has a drop down to select Country, date format, currency and language
