KCalc Plasma 6 vs Plasma 5

SUMMARY 
The loss/regression/bug? of any kind of thousands separator for digit grouping in contrast to what Kcalc for Plasma 5 used to have makes it very hard to read/type numbers with many digits.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kcalc 
2. Type 30000000 (30 million)
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
You see 30000000 


EXPECTED RESULT
You should see the number with any kind of a thousand separator, like
30.000.000
30,000,000
30 000 000

The input display doesn't have it implemented, but the result display still has the functionality.
Comment 3 popov895 2024-06-19 12:49:38 UTC 
You can use QLocale::groupSeparator() to remove the group separator before the evaluation and add a group separator when displaying the evaluation result.
Comment 4 Heitor da Silva 2024-06-25 00:26:19 UTC 
Inserting the localized separators in history and input display will improve user experience.
