  • I realize this might have everything to do with rounding (I never could) but when a text object displays a value, how would I make it display (for example) 5 instead of 5.3 . I do assume it involves rounding, but not at all sure what I'd need to do here.

  • Essentially, you have to put any of the system's rounding expressions that suits your needs in front of your value.

    Depending on your needs concerning the rounding, you would use one of the following:

    1) Rounds up

    ceil(value)[/code:29nwr85x]
2) Rounds down
[code:29nwr85x]floor(value)[/code:29nwr85x]
3) Rounds following mathematics rules
[code:29nwr85x]round(value)[/code:29nwr85x]

Also refer to the manual, system expressions, [i]math[/i] section.
