How date and number formatting in Pigment is determined
Pigment uses your browser’s preferred language settings to determine how numbers and dates are formatted. Browsers allow 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 below table.
ℹ️ Note
If none of the languages in your browser list is supported, Pigment uses the English (United States) formatting, i.e. MM/DD/YYYY for date and 123,456.78 for numbers.
