Thanks martinvicanek for the DSP version. I did make one with the Ruby too. They both behave the same way when hitting the 7 digit limit. It looks like when you released your DSP math pack, I will quote what you said: "while accuracy is close to the limit imposed by single precision (7 significant digits)." So I stumbled upon a limiting factor with 7 digits. I was trying to work on a virtual capacitor and most of the time with low voltage DC circuits you work in uF. 1 Farad (F) is equal 1000000 Microfarads (µF) (0.000001). This number is automatically displayed as 1e-006. For now with it being 6 digits the conversion will work, but I am still surprised that there is not a bigger float or integer DSP module to handle the larger numbers.

Hello There,

i known is an old Problem...
But i has the same problem again and again....
Many Moduls with the String-[FORMAT]-Box bring the FlowStone to crash is no String or is a wrong formatstring attached.

So i has made with other Primitiv an Format-Box
Inside can modify the "." to "," if you need.

Simple bring the Decimalpoint Position on (I) Input and this box format you String (without the Roundproblem)
and without Crasch when unpredicable Values are present.
