How can I convert from "Floating-point number" type to " string" type?

ELEKVN

Dear all,

How can I convert from "Floating-point number" type to " string" type?

I want to:

strcat(text->text " " text->textBlock " " text->justify " " text->rotation ).

But  " text->rotation" type is "Floating-point number", so I did not do it

Can you help me change  " text->rotation" type is "Floating-point number" to "string" type

Or can you give other idea to sole it

Thank you

Have nice weekend

ELek

    Hi,

    You can use sprintf for this

    sprintf(string_variable "%f" text->rotation)

    That should do it.

    Best regards,

    Ole
