Negative numbers / minus sign

We have a question concerning negative numbers which should be translated in the German language. Our translators use another minus sign than studio puts in automatically. Is there a chance or any kind of coding to change the automatic used minus sign against another sign?

  • I'm afraid not. You would need to make a global search and replace for negative numbers. From what I know the minus sign will be put with no space in front of the number. In such case just run a search for \-(\d) (or -(\d) – one of these will work) and replace with the proper minus sign you want followed by $1 (all this using Regex in Studio)
