I am having some trouble adjusting the readout for floats, I think it is called Float Label, but I have had the same problem with the poly readout. I had adjusted this in the past but for some reason I can’t find it and my current attempts are causing SM to crash. What I need to do is just have the readout read 0-100 etc instead of the 0.00 that it has in the standard module. Is there a safe way to adjust this?

Hi Hlis,

This is the way i do it to have the same readout for all control elements. (see attachment) If the knob max values differ i have to adjust the float multiplier. Hope this helps.

If you are adjusting the format string (%.2f) by the old method avoid to use backspace inside the stringprimitive. Just mark the 2 with your mouse and overwrite it by 0.

May I offer two modules from another thread on the format string primitive.

With these you don't have to worry about accidentally producing an invalid string and the resulting crash.

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
