Hi to all
I use lcd display for Heading Value (default 737-800 - fsx) and I want to ask with which setting will appear on the screen all 3 digits from 000, 001,002,003 etc not only 1,2,3,4 etc
I have no problem with the transform the 3 digits appear normally as in the panel but I want all 3 digits to appear up to 100 ... that is 099, 100, 101 not 99, 100, 101 etc
Thank you

Hi

For 7SEG Displays this is the LEFT PADDING Setting:
4 Ways.....

Left Padding NO Typ 0 :
A Value of 1 is shown as 100 (Filled with zeros to the right)

Left Padding NO Typ Space
A Value of 1 is shown as 1_ _ (Filled with Spaces to the right)

Left Padding YES Typ 0 :
A Value of 1 is shown as 001 (Filled with zeros to the Left) *** AS you expect ***

Left Padding YES Typ Space
A Value of 1 is shown as _ _ 1 (Filled with Spaces to the left)

*******************

For LCD the solution is much more easy.... Cause a LCD show simply just the most left numbers of a value if the number of Placeholders is less then....

Eg. 123456 is shown on a 3 Diggit Selection like "TEST: %%%" as 456 (The leading 123 is deleted)

So solution for you...
Simply add "1000" to the 3 Diggit Heading .... Transform : $+1000
So a heading of 3° change into 3+1000=1003 ... In case we just show 3 diggits like "%%%" it show now 003
The leading 1003 is simply ignored

Good Luck !
