Is there a way to limit text to only display up to two decimal points?

This will be one of those awful ambiguous responses that doesn't really answer your question, but hopefully gets you or someone else started on it.

I've used the `ToString` function in the past in OnSetText in order to adjust characters accordingly. I had a discussion about this function on another thread which has some good tips over HERE. Hopefully that can get you started.

The latest versions of XPression have a FormatFloat block in Visual Logic which you can use to specify the precision of a number. This would probably do what you need.

Hi Brian,

FormatFloat sounds like the perfect solution. I'm looking in the Visual Logic Function Blocks and can't find the FormatFloat block. Am I looking in the right spot? I may have a version that doesn't have it (Developer v5.7 3086), and if so, where can I get a newer version?

Thanks everyone for your help,

I ended up using the following script on the onsettext to only display two decimal points:

text = Convert.ToDouble("0"³ + text).ToString("0.00"³)

hooray!
