Description

@amberleahey

Using 6.1 release
-->
What steps does it take to reproduce the issue?
enter geospatial metadata > bounding box coordinates for a dataset using the tool tips in Dataverse UI (hover over coordinate field boxes)
image1

This tool tip in the UI mentions the use of commas instead of decimals points, this is incorrect formatting and will fail against the validation now added for geospatial bounding box validation for geospatial search

  • When does this issue occur?
    Enter this metadata according to the UI tool tip and it will fail

  • Which page(s) does it occurs on?

Geospatial metadata > bounding box coordinates

  • What happens?
    fails when using tool tip in UI for use of commas in coordinates (not best practice and will fail validation)

  • To whom does it occur (all users, curators, superusers)?
    all users

  • What did you expect to happen?

Let's improve the tool tip to remove mention of commas and replace with decimals. The general UI tool tip for this field can specify only - and decimals . are appropriate to use

Which version of Dataverse are you using?
6.1
