How do I round off numbers on displayed indicators

[jonhelpmejon]

I am diplaying constantly changing values on the front panel from a while loop. The increment funtion in the data range does not work for indicators. How can I select to view the numbers to the nearest 10, 100, or other user selectable value. Thanks.

Hi,

The simplest way is to use the Quotient And Remainder. This returns the
total number of times that y fits into x. Multiply this result by y, and you
get the effect you want. So, wire I to the x, and 10 to the y, and multiply
the result by 10, and put this result in the indicator...

Regards,

Wiebe.

Ian.f, never mind (I've been called a lot of names...). If you had not
mention it, I never would have noticed. Attachments don't show up in my
program...
