I've never played with formattedWidth, myself, but one semi-obvious

into whatever number of pixels, why not try something in this
neighborhood:
put the formattedWidth of char 1 to 15 of field "myField" into myTemp
That's what I am doing, but it doesn't work if field "myField" isn't
in the current card of the current stack, at least to as far as I
understand it - it just returns zero without so much as an electronic
squawk. Bummer for those of us who want to keep our working fields
far away in obscure substacks, and worse bummer if you believe the
RR documentation (will BZ, I promise).
