I had a trial run of using TW's built-in math operators, hoping they could allow the result to be evaluated in a variable, but it didn't work. It's the same issue - even when it's a negative value, sign[] interprets it as a positive. Probably because it's coercing the wikitext string to a number, instead of using the number from the result?
Here's a sandbox to replicate that: https://trumad.github.io/budgetlywiki/budgetDeltaRedNative.html On Tuesday, 11 May 2021 at 10:16:46 UTC+1 [email protected] wrote: > Oh silly me.
