Printing in engineering notation

swdesigner

In IC6 (maybe even in IC5) the ADE outputs are displayed in engineering notation with symbols - that is, 10e-6 is 10u, 10e-3 is 10m, etc.

This is convenient.

Is there any way to print numbers this way using printf or some other function in skill?

Note, I don't want to print 10e-3 as 10e-3, I want it to come out as 10m.

Thanks!

  •  Given the major reimplementation of the ViVA graph in IC615, a conscious decision was taken not to make the API public initially - until the functionality had bedded in and had been refined - there has been some polish over the life of IC615 so far. Because of that, the functions used on the default bindkeys all begin with underscore - and not all functionality is available via bindkeys (although anything on a menu can be accessed using Alt-type accellerators). The reason for this is that locking down the API when it is changing would make it harder to change things during this initial phase - because we'd have to keep supporting that API on an ongoing basis. The idea is to make a public API available in the next release.

    The best thing to do is to contact customer support over your needs in the short term.
