Hello,
Thanks for all the feedback.
My problem was (of course) entirely my mistake.
I did not understand the difference between integer and Floating Point data type. An integer is just that, a whole number and so cannot get decimal places.
So trying to use %.2f format string with integer cant work. I Changed my DCIs to Floating point, and now %.2f for 2 decimal places is working fine.
Apologies to all.
Alex
Hi,
I am sorry I was not clear.
The returned value for %s is, for example, 109.794250 plain and simple.
In the format string I have put %s kW so giving the result of 109.794250 kW
If I create a new DCI COntainer and leave the format string blank it returns: 109.794250
If I create a new DCI COntainer and put %s in the format string it returns: 109.794250
I can use any text around the %s such as Total Grid Power: %s kW which returns: Total Grid Power: 109.794250 kW
What I want to do is take the result from %s and reduce it to two decimal places.
So I don't think that its a string.
Best regards,
Alex
Hi,
Thanks for the response.
The DCI is a simple query an SNMP value (no transformations or anything) from a Schneider Powerlogic ION Power Meter, and the Map is a DCI Container, I have shown the raw value as well as some others with format string. I am aiming to get 2 deminal places precision.
I should add, that the DCI containers shown with data are using %s
Thanks,
Alex
Hi Victor,
Thanks. That works.
Alex
I think I have found the cause.
When adding descriptions to the format string, I have some data that is a percentage, so I added:
Total UPS Power: %s %
Hoping to see:
Total UPS Power: 47 %
The second percentage mark causes the whole map to break, and I have to delete it and make a new one.
Can anybody guide me on how to include a second % sign?
Thanks,
Alex
Hi All,
I was happily working on my network map, and then I added a new DCI COntainer with two DCIs and it worked fine. I went back to add some text to the Format String, and now the Map is broken with the error below.
What happened?
Could not create the view: 34

Hello,
This is my first post, so I hope I am clear.
I having problems with formatting the DCI Containers on a network map. Running NetXMS 2.2.10 on Ubuntu.
I am reading these:
It seems that most common formatters would include:
%s - insert a string
%d - insert a signed integer (decimal)
%f - insert a real number, standard notation
And we can see from the documentation:
For each Data Source can be configured: Data collection item, name, format string(like “Text: %.4f”), in case of table DCI also column and instance
So, my problem is that if I select a DCI, the Map displays the integer with 6 decimal places, and I want to reduce that to two. However ANY format string items do not work.
E.g. putting the suggested %.4f returns an <INVALID FORMAT> (%.4f), using %d returns the same. Switching the DCI itself between string and integer makes no difference.
Please can somebody help me understand what I an doing wrong?
Many thanks.
Alex
