Number Format Question

[Lars]

Hi all,

sorry for this question, but i did not find anything related...

I have a variable / String which is formated like this: 10000.00
How do i do a number format to convert it into european currency format like this 10.000,00 ?

Many thanks for your help and all the best,

Lars

Sorry but I'm very new, have you tried adding this line below the result?

Code: Select all

Substitute="0000.00":"0.000,00"

That's all I can think of

Thanks for your answer, but it's not working
Maybe another idea?

Thanks and all the best

Wait for a guru, there are many here and surely someone is already studying the best answer.

CarlotaN was close earlier, you'd typically do it in a Substitute option, though it's a bit more complex than the previous advice. It can be done using Lua too, with the approach similarly "special". I wrote solutions for both approaches and could post them when I'm back to my laptop, but if you don't want to wait, you can check this thread, since my variants are more or less along the same lines:

As promised, here's the Substitute way (it involves regular expressions):

Code: Select all

[Variables]
Value=10000.00
ThousandsSeparator="."
DecimalsSeparator=","

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
AccurateText=1
DynamicWindowSize=1
BackgroundMode=2
SolidColor=0,0,0,255

---Measures---

[Text]
Measure=String
String=#Value#
RegExpSubstitute=1
Substitute="(?<=\d)\.":"#DecimalsSeparator#","^([\-\+]?\d+)$":"\1#DecimalsSeparator#","(\d)(?=(?:\d{3})+\#DecimalsSeparator#)":"\1#ThousandsSeparator#","\#DecimalsSeparator#$":""

---Meters---

[Result]
Meter=String
FontFace=Consolas
FontSize=16
FontColor=255,255,255,255
AntiAlias=1
MeasureName=Text
Text=Result = %1
DynamicVariables=1

Using variables is not mandatory, of course - you can replace them with the actual values or symbols you want to use as separators.
