  • 1.  Rounding Decimals with script or visual Logic

    Posted 05-14-2024 12:25

    Howdy folks!

    I have a project that is reading information from a datalinq source. That data is a string of numbers in a decimal format,  example 59.888721....

    I want to display this information without the decimal, either by rounding or truncating the decimal. Any ideas on how to do this either with scripting or visual logic?

    OnSetText

    text  = FormatNumber(text,0)   the zero is the number of decimal places

    Just to add additional options, you can use the "Format Float" block in Visual Logic (under the Strings category) to take a decimal number and select how many digits of precision you'd like, or even set a custom format such as to convert into a currency.
