Hi Folks,
I'm getting a points position vector but it's returning the unit in CM's instead of the documents mm. This is causing the print to show an incomplete unit position data. If my document is in mm's for instance, and my point position is x=1000.562, y=1000.778, z=1000.426, the GePrint will only return x=100.056 etc, and is thus leaving off the third decimal place from the original unit type.
What's the work around for this? Example code I'm using below:
LONG a;
a = CP _[a]; // CP is CPolygon, i is polygon number, a is the point I'm getting from number i polygon
GePrint("Position x = " + RealToString[a].x);
Cheers,
WP. -

Try setting the digits after the decimal point explicitly, as supported by RealRoString:
String RealToString(Real v, LONG vvk, LONG nnk, Bool e, UWORD xchar)

Thanks folks,
