Re: [QGIS-Developer] QGIS expression: Formatting numbers with leading zeros

Hi Matthieu, It works, but slightly simpler ;-) We don't need the calculation "n-length("my_number"), because the second parameter is the total string length. Anyway, it works now for me and it is rather easy with lpad. Thanks, Andreas On 2017-07-12 10:16, Mathieu Pellerin wrote: >
