RE: Export to CSV: regional settings support

And why PowerBi is not capable of doing this as in Excel, you now, the Microsoft spreadsheet product?
We should be able to select the local csv format with our local column separator (";", tab etc).
There is a world outside the USA ...
Thank you in advance

IS this going to happen anytime? This is just ridiculous, that this feature has not been implemented

When exporting Data from a Power BI Visual to CSV it should include the decimals from the raw data measure, not just the formatted version of the measure.

To PowerBI Team - You must realize that there are many other countries, not just the USA. Please create a universal tool

I would even add that it should be possible to configure the 'export to csv' or even the 'import from csv' parameter, pehaps in the options & settings. It should be possible define the preferred delimiter (semi-colon, pipe, comma, whatever) as well as specify if text fields should be wrapped in double quotes, single quotes, nothing etc. That way, all imports or exports of csv could be managed using those settings.
