Hello,

I have a simple query related to display the units in controls.

The procedure is right click on the control > select display format > Advanced editing mode. In that a field called format string, here i'm giving the units related to parameters. Now I have to enter "sec2"in that field. How to give the suffix value.

Please help me.

S Nagaraju.

Why aren't you able to just edit the display format and edit it to enter the units you want?

 

If you want to programmatically set the display format, there is a property node called Format String you can write to.

It would have been helpful if you said that in your original post.

To enter any ASCII character in the display format dialog box at edit time, you can use the alt key and number pad.  For the superscript 2 which Uday stated was \B2,  you can hold the alt key then type 0178 on the number pad.  (B2 hex = 178 decimal)  On the number pad, you always need to front fill the number with zeroes to enter it as 4 digits.  The degree symbol ° is Alt 0176.
