Title: Rounding with FmtTMR
Post by: Bolt on February 04, 2022, 10:23:19 AM

Is there an "easy" way to use FmtTMR without displaying the seconds ( 00s) at the end?  Or do I need to make a FOR/NEXT loop, STRPRINT/FmtTMR to a helper string block, do MATH HelperString0.Length - 4 and STRTRUNC with this number?

FmtTMR only goes to seconds (not to minutes), so you do have to do it by hand.

Fair enough.  I'm looking at another angle here, is there an easy way to go from an integer in seconds, such as 3723, to a string formatted as 1h 2m( 3s)? Or do I need to multiply it by 1000 and then do FmtTMR anyways?

FmtTMR only works w/millisecond values, so you have to multiply seconds by 1000.
