Hi Tony, Any idea why the comma separators are embedding a link in the comma? This is what seems to happen on my tiddlywiki. Your Syntax writeup above also has a commas linking to a url for some odd reason as well. Thx! On Monday, September 21, 2020 at 3:06:46 AM UTC-7 Werner wrote: >

Eric Beat me to it, should have refreshed GG, His solution is superior of course and worthy of the Core. However mine still demonstrates the extendibility of tiddlywiki with only macros and wikitext. Regards Tones On Saturday, 19 September 2020 at 18:51:30 UTC+10 TW Tones wrote: > Werner,

Werner, As you say, would be good in the core, but almost as good is a simple macro. See attached and import to any wiki, then open $:/PSaT/format-numbers For instructions Syntax <> - *n* is the number with or without decimal places

Werner, That's a reasonable argument. I understand the View Widget is considered "over loaded" so Perhaps a new widget for number formats would make sense. However let me think if there are some snazzy work arounds for now. Tones On Friday, 18 September 2020 at 23:20:14 UTC+10 Werner wrote:

Tony, sorry, was absorbed by other projects, so couldn't reply earlier. OK, I'll be a bit more specific: I have a number stored in a JSON tiddler. When I retrieve it, I get plain old 3500 for example. But I want decimal points and comma separators to have it rendered like 3,500. Or 3.500 in

Post script Actualy i think using simple templates to display a number in a desired format would be smart and the template can be changed to suit localisation if not automaticaly respond to localisation. Macro access to templates is also easy to provide. Tones On Tuesday, 8 September 2020 at

Werner Perhaps some examples? Evans formulae plugin has features to support this from memory. There are other maths plugins that may. I can imagin a gap that exists between basic maths and the more advanced maths especialy in relation to display. However i can see these gaps would be easy to
