This works fine :
*Is it possible to make decimal numbers using "," instead of "."?
No, because the "," is also used to separate arguments to commands. But if your locale is set accordingly, iMath will convert the "." to a "," automatically when printing your formulas *

However :
If you edit the expression with "edit" from the right-click context menu , it gives errors.
Also the precision don't work.

Also,
In Writer, I cannot change the settings for the decimal separator from "," to ".".

    In the edit window, After modifying a value I need manually change "," to "." , and I need to press the OK button.
    When I first press the APPLY and then the OK button, the program gives an error.

    Thanks for reporting this bug (it is a bug, though your work-around is OK).

    I didn't understand the issue about the precision not working, though.

    I'm new to iMath, after the adapting the configuration using "." as decimal separator and after rereading the manual, the item concerning the precision is solved for me with the switch "Fixed point notation"
