Numerical indicator with spaces between each group of 3 digits AFTER the decimal separator.

I would like to display the numbers in a numerical indicator with a space between each group of 3 digits AFTER the decimal separator. How to do that?

You need to use a plain string indicator and do your own formatting of the numeric data, shouldn't be too hard. ;).

 

You can also make an Xcontrol.

I don't think that it is possible to display a number with that format in a numeric indicator.

 

You could convert the number to a string indicator:

1.) Find the number of decimal places required

2.) Convert the number to a fractional string with the required number of digits

3.) Use the match pattern and string subset functions to build your string

Something like that for example...But you can modify this VI to determine automatically how many decimals are necessary after the decimal separator.

Oups, be careful : my VI doesn't work so much in some cases ! But anyway, if you have found a solution by yourself that's OK...
