Commas between thousands

[MatthewMunoz]

Hello,

I have some 32-bit integers which will be be running into the millions and floating point numbers that will be in the tens of thousands. I would like to display them on a iX T12B or T12C HMI, with commas between the groups of thousands. How can I do this?

Best Regards,

Matt

The only way to do that would be to write a script that converts your number into a string, and then you would need to insert the ',' yourself.

Below is example code that will take the OrgNumber, a double, and using C# formating it will convert it into a string that has ',' in it. It is triggered whenever the OrgNumber tag value changes. You place it in the tags tab scripting section, found in the lower left hand corner of the tags tab.

Code: Select all

		void OrgNumber_ValueChange(System.Object sender, Neo.ApplicationFramework.Interfaces.Events.ValueChangedEventArgs e)
		{
			double rawNumber = Globals.Tags.OrgNumber.Value;
			Globals.Tags.StringNumber.Value = rawNumber.ToString("N");
		}
    }
