[dongle-the-gadget]

Describe the bug

When the user uses the English (United States) locale but change their decimal separator to use anything other than a dot, Win2D Path Mini Parser generates the wrong code.

Reproducible in sample app?

• This bug can be reproduced in the sample app.

Steps to reproduce

1. Change the decimal separator in the Control Panel Region Applet
2. Open the Sample App.
3. Go to Helpers > Win2D Path Mini Language Parser
4. Click on any of the samples (i.e., Rounded Star)
5. Observe the Canvas tab showing nothing, and the wrong code being generated in the Commands tab.

Expected behavior

The Canvas tab should show the correct glyphs and the Commands tab should show the correct code being generated, regardless of the user's decimal settings.

Additional context

Wrong path for Rounded Star in English United States + comma as decimal separator:

Correct reference path from default locale settings:

From my observation, it seems that the decimal point was entirely missing.

[Unrelated to the problem but worthy to mention: the suffix "f" for float is also missing]
