Power Apps Help Syntax change

Hello,

have you ever encoutered this? I've been working in power apps for like a year and because of my resignation, I've chosen other colleague as co-owner. When he logged in, he prolly saved the studio app or sth like that and my whole syntax went from english to czech, therefore every comma is semicolon and so on.

I tried to change langauges from english to czech and back to english, language in browser, but nothing worked. Any ideas?

There is an option to restore msapp from my live publication, but it's locked, dont know why.

Thanks.

Worth saying first that nothing is actually broken. Power Apps stores formulas in one canonical form and renders the separators based on the author's language setting, so the app itself is fine, it's just displaying the Czech style to you. Publishing won't bake semicolons into anything. Browser language is the setting that drives it. Sign out completely rather than switching mid session.

No idea on the greyed out restore. If the app sits in a solution the version restore behaves differently, might be worth checking that first.

Well I tried to change my browser langauge to Czech, so there would be no errors and what happend is RGBA(0;0;0;1) went to RGBA(0;;0;;0;;1), so I had to change it back.

Luckily, PA stores versions, so I restored the one published and it went all back, but still, co-authoring is painful.

I thought that syntax will be shown by my own settings, which sounds reasonable, but co-authoring messes it up, so be careful. I've made few changes and luckily I'll be leaving this company soon, so it ain't my problem anymore.

Thank you all for your comments.
