Hi Paul,
Use a list where you store the three values of a fraction :
e.g. your 33 1/3 will be: fract1=[33,1,3]
You will not have problems with rounded numbers if you use fractions.
Unfortunately displaying fractions is a different prblem, which I coped with
using HTML- Tabel and TD tags.
Build a simple Tabel, 3 lines, 1 colum. Give the second cell a background
color and minimize its size.
Import it into Director (as a text) , then you can place word[1] = fract[2]
and word[2]= fract[3].
For the whole number 33 you should use a sepearte textsprite. You can set
its visible to false, if the number is 0.
It should work fine
