Numeric Display Format question

Is there anything like the Display Format property of LV? I can't seem to find anything of the kind among the properties of a front panel numeric control.

Hi X-),

 

I looked at the options also and didn't find anything.  What you can do is use a String Indicator and the Format Into String function to get the custom formatting you need:

I would rather call this a workaround than a solution!

Obviously I had thought of this alternative, but I would say that kind of defeats the purpose of having numeric indicators...

I agree, I have sent this information as feedback to our Web UI Builder team.  Thankfully, it's a pretty simple workaround.  Thanks for identifying this issue!
