Label dots in between numbers (currency formatting)
I couldn't make up a better name for the question. I've got a label which shows a variable representing your current money. The things is, the amount of money you have can be immense. Is there a way (in script) to show the variable with dots between the 'thousands'. Once again, not a very clear description. I'm trying to figure how to do this:
$2.500.000,-
Instead of this:
$2500000,-
Is there a way to do this?
This is currency formatting. You can format values as currency in .NET with String.Format("{0:C}", value):
var money: float = 2500000;
print(String.Format("{0:C}", money);
And how would I implement that in this code?
GUI.Label (Rect (20, Screen.height - 433, 300, 75), "$$anonymous$$oney: $" + main.Current$$anonymous$$oney + ",-");
.... "$$anonymous$$oney: " + String.Format("{0:C}", main.Current$$anonymous$$oney) + ",-") ;
Just remember that {0:C} is going to show Euros in Europe (for now at least:), £ in the U$$anonymous$$, $ in the US etc.
actually this doesn't show £ in the U$$anonymous$$!!!
When you put the text into the label just use String.Format("{0:C}", yourNumberHere) for your local currency or String.Format("${0:#,0}", yourNumberHere) for one that always starts with a dollar - it should format according to the locale of the device using "." and "," relative to how the user expects to see it.
