Copy Selection button issue powerbi.com

Hi,

 

I faced with issue when I copy from table/matrix figures and paste to Excel. It works incorrectly if regional system settings of displaying figures are different from powerbi settings. As an example I copy figure 1,100 (one thousand one hundred) from pbi and paste it in Excel 1,1 (one point one). It's confusing. In order to paste it correctly I need to change  cell format of Excel as a text , paste it and replace "," to " " as my system settings looks like this 1 100

What are your regional system setting and Power BI settings? Based on my understanding , this is an expected result as Excel inherits your regional system setting.

In addition, what is the result when you use "Export data" option to export data to Excel?
