Hi Bob, what do you mean with "their AV software"? the drivers of their video adapter? Or do you think of any other? And what do you mean with "feature"? to suppress the ability of making screenshots in general? Ever heard of something like this? Tiemo -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von:

Re: numberFormat affecting array keys???

Again, the VALUE is not being converted by numberFormat, so it ISN'T the LOOP calculation that is doing it! Otherwise the VALUE would ALSO be 1! I loop is using i and it clearly contains 1 and not 01 because that is what shows up in the value. I could put it the otherway. I could say I expected

Re: numberFormat affecting array keys???

I got that wrong. I could say I expected the value to be 01. Also if you see the value of i in the debugger, it indicates that the value of i is 1 and NOT 01. So it HAS to be the array designation that is doing it. Bob S On Apr 21, 2017, at 07:31 , Bob Sneidar via use-livecode

Alternately, put a space after pSourceString to force it to text, which will apply numberformat, and then return word 1 of it. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On April 21, 2017 11:31:36 AM Bob

Re: numberFormat affecting array keys???

OIC. NumberFormat is a STRING function. So then...: set the numberFormat to "00"; put 1+1 into tValue; put tValue produces "02" because livecode converts EVERYTHING to a string before outputting it. It makes more sense I suppose to put it that way. I have gotten into the habit of thinking that

Re: numberFormat affecting array keys???

Sorry. Change that to: put formatNumber(i, "00") into myArray [i] and it does NOT work. adding 0 to the value with numberFormat set to "00" does NOT format the number. SHEESH! Working on it. Bob S > On Apr 21, 2017, at 08:58 , Bob Sneidar via use-livecode >

Okay simple solution: on mouseUp repeat with i = 1 to 10 put formatNumber(i) into myArray [i] end repeat breakpoint end mouseUp function formatNumber pSourceString, pFormat set the numberFormat to pFormat add 0 to pSourceString return pSourceString end formatNumber This

Re: numberFormat affecting array keys???

I could, but I will have to figure out how to convert a numberFormat string like "#0.00" to a format incantation, as the dictionary puts it. The goal is to convert ANY number to ANY numeric format, not just solve this one little issue which I could just code around if I wanted. This sort of

Re: numberFormat affecting array keys???

Here's an interesting case I ran into: long time - hours can be single digits, e.g. "8", but minutes and seconds are always two digits, e.g. "00", and, of course, setting the numberFormat does not affect anything. ___ use-livecode mailing list
