Re: [Gimp-user] does number->string have format options?



great thanks!

I am looking for the programmers reference / documentation for the scheme interpreter included with gimp. I have so far not found it, and other scheme interpreters seem to have many different definitions for eg string parsing functions. Do you know where the documentation such as a list of all functions can be found?

I am scripting adding axes to an image and need to control of format of floating point numbers that will be passed to gimps text generation functions.


Here is a helper function I had written to deal with this:

(define (number->fixedstring V D)
  (let ((D (trunc D)))
    (string-append
      (number->string (if (> D 0) (trunc V) (round V)))
      (if (> D 0) (string-append "." (number->string (round (* (- V (trunc V)) (pow 10 (trunc D)))))) "")
    )
  )
)

In use, the first parameter is the value and the second is the number of decimals to include.  It rounds to the decimal specified and pads where zeros if needed.
