Export to CSV

Hi, I've just tested this software and it is GREAT!

But there is one little thing that bothers me. When you export the logged ECU parametres into CSV file, you use comma (,) as a seperator for different values. But You also use comma as a decimal separator. And this is a bit annoying and confusing, and it makes it harder to use and work with the data in Excel.

This is the way it looks when you open the file:

Code: Select all

Engine Speed,"Desired Intake Air Quantity","Intake Air Quantity","Battery Voltage","Gas Pedal Position"
rpm,"mg/i","mg/i","V","%"
0,0000,411,3000,0,0000,12,0624,0,0000
0,0000,411,3000,0,0000,12,0624,0,0000
0,0000,411,3000,0,0000,12,0624,0,0000
...
Is there any option to use semicolon (;) as a separator for different values (that would be prefered)? Or a dot instead of a comma as a decimal separator?
To make it look like this:

Code: Select all

Engine Speed;"Desired Intake Air Quantity";"Intake Air Quantity";"Battery Voltage";"Gas Pedal Position"
rpm;"mg/i";"mg/i";"V";"%"
0,0000;411,3000;0,0000;12,0624;0,0000
0,0000;411,3000;0,0000;12,0624;0,0000
0,0000;411,3000;0,0000;12,0624;0,0000
...
That would make the it much easier to work with the logged data.
Thanks, and keep up the good work!

Hi,

Yes. would be good for the individual data were divided by columns. It would be better to do chart ....

Hi,

Ok, no problem.
You get comma as a decimal separator because your system is configured that way. I never use comma as decimal separator on my computers, but that is a matter of personal preference.
Anyway, I'll fix the column separator in the next release to be ";".
