String Format Node

[Andreas D]

Good Morning,

 

i have a short question regarding the String Format Node in Marionette... can't get it working.

Let's say i have a couple of Float Numbers (like 1.234, 2..345, 3.456...), already inside a Marionette Network. I want to format these with the "Format" Node in that way, that they always have either "+" or "-" and round them to let us say 2 digits. I know you can do this with other Nodes, but for now i would love to try it with the Format Node...

Maybe you can give me a short example of how to use it.

 

Thanks a lot

Andreas

Hi Andreas,

 

For rounding the string use the placeholder {:+.2f}

 

This placeholder combines 2 fromating types.

 

See doc: https://www.w3schools.com/python/ref_string_format.asp

 

Input:

sFormat: "The Formated number is {:+.2f}"

sArg:        9.99

 

outPut:

"The Formated number is +10.00"

 

regards,

Patrick
