Answer 1

try this

 foreach (object item in listBox1.SelectedItems)
        {
            string curItem = item.ToString();
            var parts = curItem.Split("{}XY=, ".ToCharArray(), StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
            var xCoord = CultureCheck(parts[0]);
            var yCoord = CultureCheck(parts[1]);
            var point = new PointF(xCoord, yCoord);
            CloudEnteringAlert.pointtocolor.Add(point);
            pictureBox1.Invalidate();
        }       


    private double CultureCheck(string input)
    {
        CultureInfo ci = (CultureInfo)CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Clone();
        ci.NumberFormat.CurrencyDecimalSeparator = ".";
       return double.Parse(input, NumberStyles.Any, ci);
    }
