Display Mask
« on: March 28, 2018, 11:20:36 pm »
I'm using a TLabel.

I want to display a string of 1.. 4 digits in the TLabel left aligned,

Is there a mask  that will provide this feature for a TLabel?.

Example:   |     1|
                |    23|
                |  987|
                |9999|

Yup there is...

 You do need to build a string to display in it...

 Use "Str", it works like the WrteLN/write calls do using the format indicators.

 Str(mynumber:10:0, returnString);

 that is a total of 10 digits, spaces are inserted as needed

 of course you could use FORMAT
