Math issue

[simple crane]

Hi, I came across this error in Appsmith.
(Self Hosted - 1.62)

I need to develop an app that does math (sums, multiplications, percentages, etc.). However, in a basic calculation, it does it wrong. See the example print.

I'm using {{Value1.value + Value2.value}} in the subtotal and {{Subtotal.value + Value3.value}} in the total.

When typing, the input only accepts commas. However, in the sum, it shows a period as the decimal separator, instead of a comma.

The fields are currency type (BRL).
Am I doing something wrong or is it a problem in Appsmith?

{?{ (Value1.value.replace(",", ".") + Value2.value.replace(",", ".")).replace(".", ",") }?}

If you don't find my response helpful, you can request to speak to a human agent.

Hey @simple crane! It seems that you are using an older version of Appsmith. Could you please update your instance to the latest version and let us know if the issue persists there?

Hello! This issue is happening because currently, the thousand separator and decimal separator characters are inferred from the locale. But we have this feature request: https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith/issues/15258. Please add a comment with your use case to help us prioritize it.
