Hello! I have created a import of .csv (Information about Hardware, memory, cpu, etc.) and I have a problem on numbers. I would like modify a field number to get 00,00%, but I can not get this result. I used a "gsub" during the import, modifying a field, but I could not convert "," to "." Field Message: 38,04 Field Create: 3,804.0 Wanted: 38,04% Field Message: 25,8 Field in Kibana: 258.0 Wanted: 25,8% ![Kibana](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/1/a/1a993eebef6484fe126a4bd48453fc9ae193c14c.png) ---

Could you try setting the `Formatting locale` advanced setting to your language? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/4/c/4c9b5a9d8f026b37254ba820fe9d205d9010d4e1.png) ---
