Help with RegEx please :)

Let me know if this will do (you'd have to create a similar [...AutoScaled] measure for every [m...Free] measure, of course) - this does what NumOfDecimals=2 + AutoScale=1 do, just in the STRING value of the autoscaling MEASURE, instead of in the NUMBER value of the autoscaled METER. I also slightly modified your inline pattern to match only a time value (I suppose that is what was for, right?) so it won't trigger for the drive data:

It's up to you if you want to use this, of course.

Yet again, long long formulas seem to solve all kinds of issues.

[sl23]

That's insane! Htf did you come up with that?
Sorry, still not working!

It's ok, I think I'll just stick with the 0B that I managed to get it to.

Thanks for the effort though, it was a thing of beauty to witness such a long formula!

[sl23]

I tried going back to where I started just to get the plain '0' when no drive connected, and... I only got it working
"^(.+)$":"\1B","0.00 B":"No Drive"
Well, actually, SilverAzide did!
Thank you all

[sl23]

Oh damn! Now the InlinePattern doesn't work properly
Using InlinePattern=(?U)^\d+:\d+ (\d+)$ basically doesn't format anything.
Using ^.+ (.+)$ shows the Size correctly but when No Drive appears, No is in a larger font than Drive due to the space!

[sl23]

Solved! With this: Substitute="^(.+)$":"\1B","0.00 B":""

[Yincognito]

Sorry, still not working!

Sorry, but I'm not the one responsible for the other parts of the code that you didn't show up - my sample posted here works without issues.

Solved! With this: Substitute="^(.+)$":"\1B","0.00 B":""

I doubt that is the case, since:
- if it's not a RegExpSubstitution, it will yield garbage for the part before the comma
- if it is a RegExpSubstitution, the part after the comma will replace a 0, followed by any character (this is what plain dot means in regex), followed by 00 B, with nothing - it won't replace the literal 0.00 B with nothing like you think

--------------
That being said, if you're happy that it works, who am I to disagree?
That formula is credit to someone smarter than me on these forums who posted a shorter / more basic version of it for specific cases, a long time ago. I only made it work for anything thrown at it. I use it in my skins too, so I know for sure it works in any scenario.

[sl23]

That's ok, I couldn't get it working, so it's obviously something I'm doing wrong. I just decided to make it simple and show nothing.

Well, ok, I trust in your knowledge, but that is the effect I get.

EDIT: Removal of any part of the Substitution breaks the replacement.

Yeah, ok, of course it will show the autoscaled number correctly, but you still didn't get the desired "No Drive" to show up with your "working" Substitute, right? It's the latter part I was referring to when I said what I said.

I don't think the ,"0.00 B":"" part does something in your case...

By the way, can you post the full code?

[sl23]

I'll have to take your word for it lol
Thing is, even that last bit is doing something, cos if I change it, it doesn't hide the zero value and the 'B'.

Sure... Here ya go

I'll have to take your word for it lol
Thing is, even that last bit is doing something, cos if I change it, it doesn't hide the zero value and the 'B'.

Actually, I was wrong. I was living under the impression that the autoscaling and the decimal thing is done in the meter itself, but it's done in the measure, which produces a very disturbing effect that the measure's string value is NOT what the user sees in the log, but the value displayed in the measure (e.g. the measure will display 0B as its string value in the Log, while its actual string value would be 0.00 B because of the scaling and digitizing done ... in the meter!). Not sure if I should post it as a bug in the appropriate section, but that's why it works.

That being said try this - if it works, it's the correct way to do it (see the escaped dot \.) and should also correctly display the desired No Drive when stuff is 0 (see the changed pattern):

I realized the above and tested it without trying your code, so m1Free is just a dummy Calc measure here. Thanks for posting it though.
