Hi
Me Newbie

How do you get the Variable to display more than i decimal point
i.e. 10 to the power -6

I have done the program just cannot get it to display more than  0.1

Thanks for looking

Re: Displaying Variables to more than one decimal point

Variables seem to have a bit of a problem with lengthy decimals... items in a list work better though. Maybe you could try that? ^^

Re: Displaying Variables to more than one decimal point

If you simply need the value and not the display of the variable on screen, you can simply make a script with the variable only using whole numbers and then dividing it by 10 to the power of [whatever you need]. This would only work if you have a set number of digits in your number, though.

If you need the variable for display, I don't really know of a way to make it show more digits after the decimal point.
