How date and number formatting in Pigment is determined
Date and number formatting in Pigment uses your browser preferred language settings to determine how numbers and dates are formatted. Browsers have a preferred language setting that allows you to rank your preference. Based on your browser language selection and order, Pigment uses the first supported language to format date and number according to the bellow table.
If none of the languages in your browser list is supported, Pigment will use the English (United-States) formatting - i.e. MM/DD/YYYY for date and 123,456.78 for numbers.
