MATLAB: Where can I set the decimal sign used in Clipboard

Question

Hallo,

how can I change the decimal sign matlab uses in the clipboard?

Problem:

If I copy the content of a matrix from Matlab to any other program (with <crtl c>/<crtl v> ro e.g. editor, excel, igor) the decimal "." is replaced by a ",".

I am certain it is a Matlab problem, as coping between other programm does not cause problems.

System information: Matlab 2018a on Win7 German (but decimat sign changed to "." in the windows preferences).

Can someone point me to the place where I can change this setting?

Thanks,

rs

Answer 1

Thanks for the input, however a collegue pointed me to the right positions to change the settings:

Home > preferences > variables > international number handling

I further found the xlswrite comando rather usefull.

best
